Excerpt
Once again, I was awakened from my afternoon nap by the sounds of plates breaking amidst yells of frustration coming from the garage next door. As usual, I quickly threw on a pair of shoes and crossed the grass that separated my house from his, slipped through the side door of his garage, and watched him throw plates against the wall. Steve, my nextdoor neighbor, had been told by his therapist that breaking plates was a good way to release pent-up anger and frustration. Every few days, when he felt the need, Steve did that.
