Sinopsis

Inspired by his zoom call with Kundera, Dostojevsky, Borges, Hemingway, and Joyce Carol Oates, the author embarks on a literary journey in search of personal revalidation after his recent divorce. The journey takes form in a sequence of 20 short stories, sometimes solitary, others often interconnected. Together, they take the reader on a tour of magical realism, encountering a spectrum of characters such as Mr. Bojangles, Sancho Panza, Bartholomew Columbus, Dante’s Beatrice, Gabriel Marquez’s Macondo Family, and many others, all brilliantly remembered in this text.It is left to the reader to interpret where the dragonflies are flying in the midst of this journey.Educated as an architect and engineer, Anthony Caine is an American living in Prague, Czech Republic. From 1976 to 1989 he practiced as an architect in New York City, where he was active in the development of lower Manhattan’s loft conversions. In 1991 he accepted an invitation from the Chief Architect of Prague to assist in that city’s transformation to a market economy. He has lived in Prague ever since, holding dual citizenship, developing properties, teaching university students, and consulting on matters of urban development. Dragonflies is Anthony’s third literary work to have been published. It is preceded by two novels: Passage to Yarmouth (2024) and the award-winning Fog Bound (2023).

    "Get out of my room. I'm your stepsister," I muttered, quickly hiding my naked breasts.
     
    "You only remember it around me?" he hissed, his silver eyes narrowing into my face.
     
    "I saw you with your other stepbrother," he added.
     
    "I didn't do anything with him either," I hissed.
     
    "Really? He didn't paint you naked?" As soon as he said that, I realized he had seen us together.
     
    "If you are going to let him touch you, then I should be allowed too," he stepped closer, "after all, I am not only your stepbrother but your mate too."
     
    I wish I could tell him that I have felt the mate bond with all my stepbrothers, and I was worried about what would be the end of us if anyone found out about this forbidden bond.
     
    ...
     
    Nora had lived a rather dull life until bullying in school escalated, and her stepfather made a decision to take her home and introduce her to her Alpha Stepbrothers. What started as her desire to have a family that loves her turned sinister when, one by one, she felt the mate bond with her stepbrothers. Now it was up to her to decide whether she wants a family or mates. However, she soon realized that her hot, rude stepbrothers had been trying to tame her all this time.

    Amelia had always been known for her compassionate nature. From a young age, she exhibited a deep empathy towards all living beings, whether they were human or animals. Her friends often marvelled at how she could sense the emotions of others and offer comfort in times of need. It was as if her heart had an innate ability to connect with the pain and joy that surrounded her. 
    Living in a small village nestled near the edge of a vast, enchanted forest, Amelia found herself in a world where nature's beauty was both her playground and her solace. The village was known for its close-knit community, where everyone looked out for one another. Amelia's compassion naturally found a home here, as she often volunteered to help the elderly, tended to injured birds, and offered a listening ear to those who sought her out. 
    One cool autumn day, as the leaves began to change their colours and the air carried a hint of impending winter, Amelia decided to take a solitary walk into the heart of the enchanting forest. She had always felt a deep connection to the wild, untouched parts of nature, where she could hear the whispers of the trees and feel the heartbeat of the earth beneath her feet.
