Synopsis

The theme is time and space, but the scope? If time flows like a river, this anthology runs wide and deep. A gritty cop story. A story from the muddy backstreets in the R.P.I., where they'll cut off your finger for your ring. A poem that curses academic poetry. A tribute to a WWII vet of The Bulge. A science fiction story about the end of the world that is most definitely not apocalyptic. And starting it off: a genre-bending story about a very special book.
