One Manner of Hunger or Another

by Bill Johnston

This is a collection of poetry and short stories moving from the discussion of god to the zombie apocalypse, a compilation ranging from the struggles of a drunk in purgatory to the poetic exploration of the evolution of humanity. This book is written by one starving for anyone who has an appetite. There are many manners of hunger--not merely the ache in your belly that some know so well, while other so rarely feel… I speak of the many basic cravings of life: love, solitude, accomplishment, loss, gluttony and self deprivation This is one simple man’s exploration of truth through a life time of a mixture of embracing spiritual fulfillment and the hollow emptiness of defeat. So I ask you now as you contemplate these words. Are you hungry?
