Here are twenty brand new literary melodies in a SYMPHONY OF STORIES.
The word music of the stories is put into the form and framework of a symphony. First, an Andante, the going-along, the sequence of events that make up a narrative. Then, an Adagio, which is the tragic, followed by a Scherzo, the comic. The literary symphony concludes with an Allegro, the triumph.
The themes of the stories are some of the most basic: Longing for love, finding love, suffering disappointment in love, and losing love. Sex as farce. Ambition and the frustration of ambition. Art, music, literature, and our electronic technoculture. The individual in society. Moral and immoral. The sane, the insane, and doubts about which is which. Oh, the wondrous complexities of the human!
