Book Description
Tales From the Far Side is a delightful collection of imaginative, eclectic short stories, some featuring humorous, chatty animals, not to mention mouthy inanimate objects. Many take place during cataclysmic historical events, such as the 2012 onslaught of Hurricane Sandy and relate to timely issues such as racism, alcoholism, and attitudes toward people with disabilities. Featuring Navajo code talkers, Tuskegee Airmen, hibakusha (disfigured atom bomb victims), and artificial intelligence (AI), this thought-provoking book is sure to captivate anyone who relishes a good, albeit far out, story.
