Book Description:

These neatly-constructed post-modern tales demonstrate the author's skill at deception. Even in stories that contain portraits of reality, readers are compelled to question whether such "reality" is, indeed, real. These are stories that take jibes at both realist literature (with its emphasis on the social qualities of humankind) and absurd literature (which emphasizes humankind's isolation).
