โฆ Synopsis
The opening story of MONA, inspired by the Museum of Old and New Art located in Hobart, Tasmania, sets the stage for this collection of short stories that adds an Australian flavor to Colin Heston's acclaimed The Tommie Felon Show. As one reviewer of that collection noted "...vivid and real, some of the stories seem to jump out of the pages... engaging, hilarious, unique... a commentary on human desires, shortcomings and the society we live in.... one has to look beyond the words and the events in these stories to really appreciate them." (Readers' Favorite). The stories range across many styles, prose poems, jottings that are almost aphorisms, classic stories of human emotion and the contradictions of human existence, dystopian themes and settings, all engaging, never dull. The stories in this volume are: 1. MONA. 2. The Tommie Felon Show. 3. Easter Story. 4. Veggies. 5. Wombattered. 6. Death at the Y. 7. Seductio ad absurdum. 8. Head's Up 9. Parodisiac. 10. A Meeting of Relative. 11. Leap of Faith. 12. Civilization. 13. Deconstruction. 14. Fake Truth. 15. Secret of the Sand. 16. Mixed Blessings. 17. Rounding Error.
