Showing results for "Spectrum" in Anthologies & Short Stories

Diagnosed as severely autistic at the age of three, Tito, nearly nonverbal, was brought up by his loving mother Soma, who taught him to read English and challenged him to write his own stories. The initial result was The Mind Tree, published in 2003, which Tito wrote between the ages of eight and 11. The Gold of the Sunbeams is an equally impressive, beautiful collection of stories, each prefaced by a charming note from Tito explaining how the story came into being.

Book View Cafe celebrates its fifth anniversary with an anthology of our favorite stories. From the fantasy and science fiction of our roots to steampunk, romance, historical and mainstream; from humor to life's hardest challenges, across the spectrum from light to dark.

Een gescheiden oplichter verkoopt samen met zijn jonge dochter flessen 'heilige lucht' aan goedgelovige toeristen. Een Libanese Sjeherazade betovert drie jonge soldaten in een door hen bezet radiostation in Beiroet. En een Israëlische vrijwilligster bij een checkpoint op de Westelijke Jordaanoever rouwt om de dood van haar zoon. In de verhalen van Omer Friedlander smachten de personages naar verbinding en gaan momenten van intimiteit samen met humor en absurditeit.
