<p>Here are long shadows. Cast as inherited notions of what it means to be a man, Kevin Grauke s Shadows of Men is a defining meditation on maleness, masculinity, and manhood. The fathers, sons, husbands, and lovers of this ambitious first collection occupy a suburban terrain where insecurity, uncertainty, and inadequacy all project a disquieting shade. Their floundering may demarcate the thirteen stories humor and poignancy, but a dignified, near-elegiac portrayal of the modern man resonates. The shadows reach is long, and these characters may stumble and lose their way, but Grauke s empathetic clarity sweeps the unsettling land.</p>
