  We all know ‘time’ as that singular thing that journeys us from the present to the future.  In this volume its really not like that at all.  These stories jump backwards and slip forwards and sometimes set themselves on repeat just because that is the intention of our talented authors.  They love to play with their imaginations and take us along for the ride.
