TALES OF FICTION INFUSED WITH THE FANTASTICAL From the publishers of the popular Tall Tales and Short Stories from South Jersey comes a mesmerizing compilation of new fiction. Suspenseful and mysterious, with a touch of ironic humor, Reading Glasses will transport you to the very edge of reality.
Incapable of sleep and forced to keep it secret, a young woman searches tirelessly for the truth about her past. A man seeking refuge from his mistakes happens upon a dried up bayside settlement with unfinished business. An spinster returns to her childhood home to teach a valuable lesson to family vultures descending on her final days. In a dystopian future where reading and writing are illegal, a fringe dweller discovers a pair of glasses that proves the literary world is alive and well. A teenage boy's family drama is no secret, and the judgment of outsiders is painful. One terrible day he rescues a tiny turtle, and soon discovers that a hard exterior isn't the solution. Under the threat of international warfare, a woman coming to terms with the death of dear friends learns that their disappearance was not as permanent as it appeared. An old man with a terminal illness, who feels he got life all wrong, wants to make sure that at least he gets death right. Escape to the lives of these curious characters, and lose yourself in thirteen original stories. From life on a space station to tales that orbit a little too close to home, Reading Glasses is a compelling, fantastical departure from the familiar.
