description: Root and Shoot offers fifty two of Nathan Leslie's best new flash and short fiction pieces. Featuring stories published in Boulevard Shenandoah Gargoyle Red Rock Review JMWW Hobart and Cimarron Review among many others Root and Shoot pokes its warm muzzle into the fictional loam. There is a bit of everything for everyone in this eclectic collection: crab islands subway surfers make out clubs lizard-outfit-wearers toll road operators obsessive children the indigent and homeless the rankled and weary the neurotic and fearful the resentful and lonely and those who defy description. Seven years in the making Root and Shoot is a comprehensive tour-de-force by an author stretching his wings.
