Vignettes is a collection of short-short stories in a variety of styles ranging from experimental to conventional, some mundanely surreal, some with a lighthearted silliness, some with quite eerie undertones. A down-on-his-luck doctor, an exhausted dad longing for the past, a brave woman struggling just to leave her home to go to work, a retired painter experiencing the boredom of old age, a game show set in the near future, and a couple of Elvis impersonator sightings... are among the characters and events that make their appearances in these stories. Contents: The Coming Tawny Healthcare Having a Ball The Bench Oh, See Dee. Valve Some Have Gone and Some Remain Kids Do The Darnedest Things The Penny Some Forever, Not For Better And Then - To Go To Sleep - Griesshopper and the Ents Porca Miseria
