They Both Loved Vonnegut: A Collection Of Modern Fairy Tales

Decater Collins takes a pointed look at modern society with ten fables that expose the emptiness and ambiguity of the institutions, customs, and relationships that we too often leave unexamined.

A young woman leaves her small southern town only to find herself face-to-face with a legendary leviathan of the Mississippi. A child prodigy exhibits the apparent ability to foretell the future but is an annoying presence to teachers and administrators. An overly polite girl gets unwanted advice from Baby Jesus.

These entertaining tales combine humor and insight to force readers to more closely scrutinize every day life and the absurdities that are often just beneath the surface.
