Description: "This collection of short stories with a subversive undercurrent applies a sardonic, almost farcical spin to familiar genres such as the journalistic interview, the pedagogical homage, and the romance novel. Prayers of an Accidental Nature resonates with a diversity of voices that are sometimes comic, sometimes tragic, and always human."--BOOK JACKET.
