Visits and Other Passages

Visits and Other Passages is a short collection of short stories, vignettes, essays, letters, essays, flash fiction, free verse/formal poems: social commentary on visits and passages (psychological and geographical) of a mid-western contemporary woman. Various genre were used in the hopes of grasping the subtle aspects and shades inherent in the wide range of visits and passages one experiences--as in most things relating to humans, they are neither simple or straight forward. The collection is divided into: Part I: The Hearth; Part II: Slants and Other Perspectives; Part III: Capturing Words; Part IV: Conjectures. The foreword is by Su Epstein, PhD.
