Opis

The truth isn't always 'nice', and those who would dig down to the roots of human folly should expect to get their hands at least a little dirty. This collection transports readers to the realm of the forbidden, probing the dark, seldom-explored reaches of illicit desire and obsession where opposites attract and lust burns on any fuel it can find. Ranging in mood from the comically macabre title story, to the poignant realism of "All the Things They Never Got to Say" and the bewildering moral ambiguities of "The Why in Everything" and "Detour (Alternate Timeline)," these tales challenge our comfort zones and scandalize the earnest little angels sitting on our shoulders, while inviting their opposite numbers to come out and play. If the stories in this book were made into movies they would no doubt be rated somewhere between R and NC-17. Not so much for graphic content (though there is a fair amount of that) as for "adult situations."
