Library Journal

April 15, 1987
Dickinson here presents ten stories with variable results. The best is "Risk," a tale of game-playing young adults whose activities include a night of dice-throwing for the world, Monopoly on the big board. The oth ers, all small-scale, lack essential de tails in character and setting. Three stories"The Jinx," "Bill Boston," and the longest, "With or With out"rely on the fiction writer's old est and most deceitful gambit, the trick ending that hits the reader with an unlooked-for surprise. O. Henry was a master at this abrupt conclu sion, but sometimes even he was un successful, as Dickinson is here. Overall, the stories are deliberately elliptical and excessively quirky. Dickinson has received much praise for his novels, Waltz in Marathon (LJ 11/1/83) and Crows (LJ 4/1/85), but With or Without doesn't merit such consideration.Glenn O.
