After reading a few stories, I decided this book held no interest for me at this time nor was it a good fit for my blog.  I elected not to finish the book now, but it may be a case of "the wrong book at the wrong time" syndrome and I might be willing to try it again in the future.  Thank you to Random House Publishing Group - The Dial Press and NetGalley for giving me the opportunity to sample this title.

CALLAN WINK. Dog Run Moon. Dial. Hardcover, 256 pages, $26, PenguinRandomHouse.com.
	Michigan-born Callan Wink, a fly-fishing guide and short-story writer in Livingston, Montana, has put together an impressive debut collection of contemporary stories set mostly in Wyoming and Montana. He writes of a Custer re-enactor who has a long affair with an Indian woman, of a father and son lost on the Crow reservation on a fishing trip and of a construction worker on the run with a dog he has stolen. The nine stories are told with humor and a keen understanding of the human psyche. They are perhaps not for all tastes, but fans of Annie Proulx and Sherman Alexie will likely be more than satisfied.
