What if dreams are not what you think they are? Is our future already behind us? Are fairground attractions exactly what they claim to be? Should we listen to fortune-tellers? Could it be that the end of time is merely... the end of time? The stories in this collection ask all sorts of questions. Some of them also give answers. They're not always comforting, and not necessarily the answers you might have been expecting. Indeed, the unexpected is what you're likely to get. Frank Roger's stories cover a wide range of material, including and transcending the entire spectrum of fantastic literature. Some may detect an influence of Philip K. Dick's dark satires, of J. G. Ballard's poetic surrealism, perhaps even a dash of Jorge Luis Borges' intricate puzzles and labyrinths, lingering in readers' memories longer than anticipated. But in the end you will have to chart your own course through this maddening landscape constructed by a few scores of short stories. We hope you will make it safely to the exit. Wherever the exit happens to be. If there is one at all. -- Frank Roger was born in 1957 in Ghent, Belgium. His first story appeared in 1975. Since then he has written a few hundred stories which have appeared in more than 35 languages in all sorts of magazines, anthologies, and other venues. Apart from fiction, he also produces collages and graphic work in a surrealist and satirical tradition. They have appeared in various magazines and books. -- Ralph Midgley has studied Volapuk for forty years. He has translated many texts of all kinds. He is the Secretary of the Volapuk Movement, the Secretary of the Academy and editor of the montly magazine "Vog Volapuka."
