内容简介：
From the hot, tropical, sensuous banks of the Para River in Brazil, to the laid-back but vibrant Florida Keys, the stories in The Para River live with colorful characters and glorious and amusing events found only in island life. The first story, "The Ride," is reminiscent of Mr. Anderson's first book, Diary of a Dope Fiend, which its readers will fervently appreciate. Get in step with everyday Key West resilience through the eyes of a concerned observer. From young boys fishing for snapper and exploring the Florida Keys, to illegal drugs drifting ashore, to an old man walking his dog, these stories are sure to delight the palate.
