The Button Pusher

“The Button Pusher and Other Stories” by John Gillispie contains science fiction works and other short stories focusing on life’s possibilities and the consequences of decisions – made or not made. As Lorri Tipton writes in the foreword to the collection: “The mind of John Gillispie exists in many dimensions. Reality vs. unreality; the thin veil between life and death; the rifts in the imagination that allow us to see beyond our ordinary worlds; possibilities seldom considered and never achieved. This collection of short stories addresses all these ideas and more. This common thread of dimensionality runs through all Gillispie’s work.” This collection of stories weaves humor and hope into its theme of facing one’s fears of possible failure and inevitable change.
