An Orphanage of Dreams

By Sam Savage

Book Overview

Piquant, elegiac, surreal short portraits of animals, human and otherwise, sketching a vision of life as a measure of loss.

Sam Savage's final book is a collection of stripped down visitations, flash fictions of smoke breaks and long drives and friends who finally stop showing up. The acidic tang of disappointment is here, and sparks of biting insight, in portraits of people and animals, in all our absurdity and failed attempts at meaning. As Sam says, "What a life."
