On the Cusp of It All: Tales of Age and of Aging - Paperback

by Patrick Conley (Author)

This collection of short stories describes a variety of characters all facing transitions in their lives. Some succeed, some fail, some are left questioning their new status. However, all of these fictitious characters lie on the cusp of it all, peering over the crest of some hill into new territory. They may be stepping into worlds of knowledge or ignorance, foolishness or wisdom, lands where they find new opportunities or old failures.They cross the boundaries between human and animal, body and soul, life and whatever comes after life. Some succeed, some fail, while others are left peering into the twilight worlds of hopeful dawns or or of fearful dusks.
