Remnant Stew

This first collection of Tristan MacAvery's short works spans over two decades of humor,experience, passion, and wonder. Here are tales of a lady who still speaks tounicorns; of a writer who finds a muse that's a bit more than he bargained for;of a pair of space pilots, drinking one last toast to each other before theirrespective planets go to war; of a town whose people live only to build andrebuild the wall which surrounds their ever-shrinking land; of an office tempwho discovers that his boss just might be the very devil to work for; and ofaliens who try to mate with Volkswagens.There is food for thought herealso, ranging from the comedy of breaking a toilet while being attacked by areligious icon, to the drama of trying to rescue a drug-crazed young man fromhis suicidal cravings. Essays discuss everything from the relative worth ofHenry David Thoreau's Walden to the modern world, to an entire politicalplatform that has something to offend just about anyone who has lost hold ofhis common sense.Remnant Stew: A tasty dish to setbefore anyone with an appetite for excellent writing.
