Publisher's Synopsis
In this a-maze-ing collection you will lose yourself in nine original and entertaining short stories about the traps and benefits of taking advantage. Join the frantic train ride of a rock 'n' roll star and the legacy in its wake. Listen to the haunting sounds from the tomb of a cool club-land saxophone player. Learn the false reasons for the murderous example taught by a Mafia boss in Rome. Share the pragmatic gunpoint view of an Afghan suitor made cynical by war. Suffer through a thousand and one gourmet dinners endured under the threat of decapitation. Enter a killing game making it into the Internet age, get to know a drug addict who trades his vice for someone else's soul, and meet a witty critic with a heart of stone and a pen of steel. And somewhere near its heart you'll bump into an escape artist whose success fails him when he can't escape from the maze he's in."This collection will appeal to readers of literary fiction, particularly those who enjoy fiction with an absurdist twist that nears magical realism. The balance of character development will delight readers interested in complex characters and thought-provoking stories with a twist."Amazon Editorial Evaluation
