phenomen a book

A collection of short stories that all have a basis in obsession and a connection to nature. In "To Hear, To Speak, To See," The Dumb is desperate to be heard while stranded on a deserted island with The Fool and The Heard. The Fool wishes to see and The Herd always wanted to hear. In "Pocket Cult," The Shepard is an ant and takes a religious rule over her colony. Their god? Humans. "The Midden Desire" follows The Gravedigger with his search and removal of the smell. "The Earth Sings" takes place in the Polar Plateau, The Requiem is in love with the song she hears. In "And in reply, the sun can only cry," The Apostate is an apostle of the sun and yet, he resents it. This whole collection is the price I pay for having this brain, and the price readers pay to read it.
