About the Book

A literary book.These short stories are witty and original, and range from murder and mystery to fables and stories of animals.From funny to frightening, from idiosyncratic to down-to-earth, some are very short in the manner of Borges and some ( such as the prize-winner, THE ZIPP) of the traditional length of two to four thousand words.From a quarrel between a man and his wife in the Iraqi desert to fables in an Indian garden, to an ironic late middle aged romance. Surprises and incongruities.
