Contemporary American Fiction

Vera Perl, the bright, edgy heroine of `Bigfoot Dreams, ` is the star reporter of a sleazy supermarket tabloid. At work, she conjures up stories about UFO sightings, miracle cures in garden vegetables, evidence of life after death, and the ever-popular Bigfoot. At home, she contends with a precocious daughter, and errant husband, and her own fantasies. It all works well enough it she doesn`t think too deeply. But then one day Vera discovers that one of the stories she`s invented has turned out to be true in ways she never could have dreamed...
