From train carriages to roadside inns, strangers meet and part, leaving lasting impressions on one another's lives. These vignettes explore the serendipity of love and the poignant beauty of temporary companionship. It is a reminder that the most significant moments often happen on the way to somewhere else.

    As we get older, many of us return to youthful memories of poems once significant to us. Outside their association with our youth, we may wonder what significance they have to us now. There were other poems we've met along the way as well: some held no appeal while others were forgotten. And there were others we never had the opportunity to meet. 
     
    This selection hopes to go beyond the experience of meeting old friends and on top opening the door to new ones - poems that might relate more significantly to our current lives. Originally titled "Personal Poems for Later Years," this collection gestures towards poems that ask us to slow down some we can consider them more deeply than before - no matter our age. 
     
    Each time we read a good poem it brings with it a different meaning. Meeting a poem with an open ear, be it old friend or new, we can find its deeper significance. (Summary by Alan Davis Drake)

    Lewis Carroll (1832 - 1896) is best known for 'Alice's Adventures in Wonderland'. It is less widely known that he worked as a lecturer for mathematics at Christ Church college, Oxford for 27 years. 'A tangled tale' merges his two talents as storyteller and mathematician. It consists of 10 short humorous stories which present one or more mathematical problems. The 10 'knots' as they are called, were first published in 'The Monthly Packet' magazine between April 1880 and March 1885, where readers were invited to solve the problems, and the solution was discussed in a later issue. (Summary by Availle)

    This collection of 21 short stories was gathered from all of my present works and some that were never published before, and in fact just recently completed. 
    There are some science fiction stories in there, some ironic, others mysterious and yet others just plain silly. I'll let you decide which is which. 
    I hope that you find it a quick and enjoyable read. Thank You for choosing this book to read.
