Truth stirred with fiction from a Western vantage. Season 3 was a reading, with original music, from 'The Lie and the Aether,' which was rewritten and became the popular novel "Paper Targets," by Steve Saroff. Other seasons included stories originally published in Redbook and other national magazines, as well as interviews and other short and interesting listening. Highly recommended.
