More outrageous and humorous experiences with a twist of satire and magical realism await you in Mostly True II: Episodes like those that appeared in Mostly True: Short Stories. Enjoy that bumpy trek called Life, once again from the lady whose days have been punctuated by acute moments of disbelief!
In Breathless, a young and carefree child of four who frolics with the neighbor's dog finds out that four-leaf clovers don't always work as expected. The cast of characters in Fairytale House is something to write home about if you don't live there. Greta, the Hostess with the Mostess is confident that keeping up appearances is a good substitute for Seeing is Believing. In Young Love a human tractor in high gear plows down an outgrowth of puppy love. Instead of 'Baby makes three', in the story The Baby Maker, baby makes four with the addition of a meddlesome mother-in-law, a done deal. Civil Disobedience is about the price a middle-class house wife, a young mother pays when she challenges the status quo. The Dinner Show is a madcap courtroom spectacle, like something out of a Fellini film. The Glimpse, a mother and daughter's reunion reveals how fickle fate can be. When Opportunity Knocks, a woman ditches her unsavory past for a new beginning in Paradise. A Zen Meditation Center is where a confused woman goes to figure out her life and learns how to Dance in the Void. In The Light Fantastic, a dancer is taught a way to gracefully rebound after years of falling and feeling stuck.
