Suicide, murder, religion, and faith all merge in Carmine Pari's electrifying short-story collection, No More Time.
Revealing both the strength and weakness of the human mind, Pari packs an emotional punch in even the most tightly-worded stories.
From a shopkeeper's generous effort to aid a hopeful young girl in Duck or Doll to a dying man's unusual-and violent-last wish in The Payment, each of the sixteen narratives contained in this compilation invites readers to contemplate the mysterious and untimely moments that challenge everyone.
The many unexpected twists and turns in these stories will surely surprise and gratify readers. Who is the narrator and to whom does the narrator whistle in Beauty on the Lawn? Did the narrator in Reflections of a Blue Moon lie or imagine his story?
With many of its stories' endings open for interpretation, like a good poem, No More Time is a fascinating look into the depths of the human soul...and the darkness that might be found within it. The tales themselves, ranging from a few pages of flash fiction to the probable and mystifying novella Transforming Karma, each employ a unique and interesting style to convey even the most treacherous events-what Pari ultimately crafts to fulfilling and even chilling effect.
Readers will be thrilled to discover this body of work that captures some of the wonder and tragedy of human life.
