Horn Scars: Stories from the Plaza

Horn Scars: Stories from the Plaza

ByAJ Parker

Usually printed in 3 - 5 business days
Most matadors try to impose their will on a bull by forcing the animal to do something against its nature. If the bull doesn’t fit the man’s narrow plans, frustration and effort ensue. It becomes a bloody mess, and no one wins. Simply put, the better the bull looks, the better the matador is. “The Stiff,” follows the matador, Roberto Franco, who wants the one thing he’s never had in his illustrious career – to not be boring. ‘‘Horn Scars’’ tells the heart wrenching tale of a young bull’s determination to make his father proud through his first and only fight in the plaza. “The Good Kill” tells the story of what happens when a troubled young man realizes he’s losing the one gift was given in life – the ability to kill perfectly in the arena. “Oscar,” is a Cuban street thug who unexpectedly becomes a bullfighting sensation only to have it cut short when his past catches up with him. … Parker has created a masterpiece of short stories ….” —Celeste Browning Amos
