This collection of biting shorts grapples with life’s foibles from the past, present and future, and sometimes dives into dream lands. These tales complement each other in weird and disturbing narratives that embody myths, fairy tales, and the day-to-day difficulties that cross our paths when we least expect them. If you don’t like your fiction bland, if you’re the suspicious type, if you don’t take anything you see or hear for granted, then this is for you.
