This short story collection contains eight stories and a "Foreword." It's a high concept collection of literary fiction.Whether plants are taking over a man's life or a father is protecting his daughter, good may or may not prevail over evil. In fact, don't even expect the hero be alive at the end of the story. No matter what, don't expect a happy ending. These are stories that reflect true life not the life in escapist fiction.If you're looking for a book that demonstrates the writer's ability to use words to paint true pictures of human existence, this is the book for you. If you're looking for "Happy Ever After" fairy tales of life, you'll need to look somewhere else.
