A collection of short stories for the 99% who scrape by paycheck-to-paycheck, trying to hang onto their souls while suffering the indignities of the Neoliberal Way of Life. Tales of alienation, family dysfunction, workplace frustration and our lonely 12 Steps through everyday life are told by a sardonic narrator determined to answer the eternal questions: who am I, and is there any remedy? With bleak humor, these spare stories navigate our modern landscape of decline: casinos, corporate offices, county jails, council flats, parking lots and Victoria's Secret. Call it Literature for the estranged or Dollar Tree Kierkegaard, this is a collection that should hold particular appeal for those readers who feel themselves strangers or pilgrims on earth.
