More DescriptionA relationship ends with a meal. A southern town disappears, bit-by-bit. Two sisters sit in a hospital room, sharing a piece of strawberry cake while children are thrust into a strange new existence of abandoned superstores and unrelenting fluorescent light. A cataclysm hovers on the point of a knife as brown-skinned schoolgirls make peace with long sleeves and vile names. This cross-section of indie and traditionally published authors cross genre lines with seven stories about separation, loss, and the peculiar loneliness that comes with being a stranger in a strange land. From frigid Chicago to the sweltering asphalt of south Texas, these stories dive into the heart of what divides us, and what connects. All proceeds from this collection goes to the Refugee and Immigrant Center for Education and Legal Services.
