Resistance and Other Short Fiction
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
A collection of inventive short stories, all previously published in literary journals, uncovering the truths hidden in our lives. The settings range from familiar suburbia to a science-fiction flavored (but recognizable) police state. Some explore delicate nuances of human behavior with sly humor and serious underpinnings of private pain, others take a wider, political view. In one story, a respectable married woman, environmentally and politically concerned, contemplates deceiving her husband as to his father's medical condition in order to save their weekend away at a country inn.
