Summary

From Scout Media comes A Journey of Words—the second volume in an ongoing short story anthology series featuring authors from all over the world.
 
In this installation, the authors will lead the reader to destinations unknown; from the heartbreak of driving to visit a loved one for the last time, to the far-reaches of outer space, to mysterious islands inhabited by long-forgotten spirits. You will learn how deadly a trip to a greenhouse can be, the perils involved in delivering the mail, and a hard lesson about how shiny new Volkswagon Beetles should not be trusted. These stories of traveling and journeys will touch your heart, send shivers down your spine, and make you root for the underdog. 
 
Whether to be enlightened, entertained, or momentarily caught up in another world, these selections convey the true spirit of the short story.
Available since: 09/01/2016.
Print length: 612 pages.

    In this ribald, titillating, exciting book, Marco Vassi exposes the human animal in all its absurdity. He spares no one and nothing in his ironic X‑ray of our exalted obsessions. Capturing the sizzling vitality of our current erotic upheaval while grasping its peculiar pretensions, Vassi creates a gallery of unforgettable characters who are only ourselves in a form larger than life. In these nineteen stories, Vassi turns erotic literature inside out, unraveling the seams of our most secret fantasies. The Erotic Comedies offers a mere taste of what awaits readers in his full‑length novels.

    This is a delightful collection of little stories for little people, just right to be listened to at bed time by a sleepy boy or girl.   Some have a moral, some are just fun and some are poems; but all of them are either written or adapted by the well known author Laura  Richards.   These bite sized stories are all sweetly reminiscent of by gone days when life seemed simpler and easier for adults and children.   - Summary by Phil chenevert
