Synopsis
An explanation of the title of this work provides the best introduction: The Baltimore Years. J.
Tyler Blue never uses these words in this particular order in any of his works and indeed some might consider the words pleonastic
(whatever that means), but the title hints of Baltimore and of Years. And also of The. In The Baltimore Years we find that Blue brushes the dust from Charm City and immerses himself in it. He never lets the dust settle, however, but freezes it in time around him with haunting and silent prose that allows him to explore his world as a lost astronaut floating amongst the stars might.

01/12/2005: I picked this book up without really knowing what it was about. It an amazingly quick read and powerful read. I never thought such short stories could ever move me as much as these have. J Tyler Blue has a very haunting and real way to describe the everyday life and consequences of action and more importantly - inaction. Crushing honest, disturbingly addicting, J Tyler Blue is a writer that clutches his readers mind like a starving tiger trapped in a cage.
