Tales From The Fair - Episode 3

Molly Quinn/The Spokesman-Review

Sometimes we're drawn to things in ways we can't easily explain. In this episode, Shawn Vestal introduces us to a man who likes making collages out of vintage catalogs. Jessica Halliday describes the inexplicable pull of the Cool Girl. And Samuel Ligon tells a story of love among freaks.

These stories were originally commissioned by the Spokesman-Review and edited by Carolyn Lamberson.
