PRODUKTBESCHREIBUNG
by William Mays (Author)
This anthology features a mix of poetry and prose, fiction and non-fiction. All the works are written by the residents or natives of the metropolitan area of Corpus Christi, Texas. Youthful exuberance coexists with polished style. Chupacabras reappear. Talking animals take a hiatus, but the chatty squirrel will not be denied. People who live on the edge share time and space with those who support traditional values. Surprisingly, there are no stories of a dystopian future, but the search for love and meaning remains universal-and elusive. Some strive for sexual identity; others find passion in unexpected places; a few accept isolation and self-reliance. Sometimes, a harsh physical environment tests one's mettle and underscores internal conflict.
