FALL OF THE EMPIRE

No, I haven't stopped reading The Empire of Ice Cream. I'm three stories in and loving every minute of it. I've just decided to stop posting about each story as I read it; I'd rather let them roll around in my head for a bit and play off of each other. So, I will wait and do a review of the collection as a whole when I finish it later on this week. I have the title story up next!

At each mention of this collection's title I think of this Wallace Stevens poem. Any connections?

No, there isn't any connection between the two (as Ford mentions in the notes at the end of the title story). He just thought it sounded like a good name for an ice cream parlor.
