15 short stories inspired by the literature of Franz Kafka, Jorge
Luis Borges and the radio plays of Arch Oboler. Meet the
psychiatrist who has too much in common with his patient; the two
strangers whose paths were meant to cross repeatedly; the detective
hired to find a missing writer who then finds himself in a world of
fiction; the stuffed human being possessing a consciousness no one
perceives; the professor and the student who exchange roles on a
psychic level; the Florida retiree who suspects his wife and
friends to be products of his imagination; the director who
realizes he is trapped in the nightmarish reality of his latest
film, and the short story writer whose life is threatened by the
characters he has invented. Pieces & Stems is a surrealistic
journey from which your mind may never recover.
Pieces & Stems: Stories By Stephen O'Rourke has been named a
finalist in the Short Story - Fiction category of the 2012 Next
