Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Short sories exploring life, love, and death through different channels -- prairie life, a poor Mexican village, a coming of awareness, the hunger of lonely gold-rush miners, inside the contorted mind of a rapist, and more, each unfolding in different times and geographies, each clothed within the minds of its protagonists. Some unfold within strict prose boundaries, others in a free form akin to non-rhyming poetry. Some stories are but a few pages in length, others small novellas. All pivot around love in its many and varied forms. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.…

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. He wasn't made for war yet, through what he considered a monumental snafu by the Government, meek and passive E.T. Calfritery, minor bank employee in Topeka, Kansas, had been drafted, sent to Officer's Training School, made a Major (a continuation of the snafu), and immediately shipped to Africa, only recently invaded by Allied forces, where he was assigned by his commanding General the task of providing mules for the imminent invasion of Sicily. All he needed to do was cross the African continent in an unarmed C47 through skies controlled by Axis aircraft, find a ship in Alexandria where there were no ships available, especially one suitable for transporting mules, then assemble a crew when there were no soldiers or sailors available, and sail it westward through Mediterranean waters controlled by Axis aircraft. All this to happen before the invasion itself commenced. When he protested, quite ineffectually, that he was completely unfit for such a daunting task, his commanding General snapped, ``Quit sniveling, and get on with it! So despite abject fear giving way to panic and then to downright terror, he did. This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In a society where poetry and drama have been outlawed for centuries such that even their memory has been etched from existence, two astroscientists stumble upon a secret arcanum whose very few members have been struggling, without any guideposts, to recreate meaningful rhymes. Though one scientist is outraged and the other piqued, they leave, deciding not to report their discovery. However, unable to forget the experience, they return after a short absence, one to `unmask' the rhymers by exposing their errors through rigorous logical argument, the other to learn more about the group and their beguiling language. Not only are they welcomed but are encouraged by the group's leader to express their views whenever they wish. One then engages the group with precise logic only to be frustrated when the leader replies in rhyming obfuscation, these verbal fireworks noted in a diary kept by the other scientist. After some time and many verbal skirmishes, the observing scientist decides to leave his job and join the rhymers while the other voes to search the most secret of Government computer archives for evidence of earlier poets and dramatists, exposing their banality and nonsense, thereby proving his point. The story of their two paths is chronicled in The Reply to the Damned's Fool, a story of clandestine computer hacking, the flight of the group to avoid discovery, the finding of compassion among simple farmers, and the awakening of love.
