James Stark crawls into your darkest fears about life and family, lighting a fuse in twenty-one narratives. Several ignite to an explosive climax, forcing you to catch your breath before turning the page. Sketches from the Edge , a collection of short stories, flash fiction, and short-shorts, spans the twentieth century, shaped by the Cold War, through the twenty-first century, fraught with terrorism. Stark uses the topics of the times, such as a family in hiding and a predatory priest, and pushes the emotions to the edge of human endurance. Children suffering for the sins of their fathers, the plight of the homeless, and more, influence this collection pulled from the pain of two centuries. These stories present a marriage of absurdity, fantasy, and Stark's social critiques. Feel edgy fiction like never before.
