A collection of novellas, leaning toward literary fiction rather than web fiction or feel-good wish fulfillment. Romance rarely appears.
A few chapters touch on marriage, but since they do not explore romantic relationships, I have decided to put this in the [No CP] category.
Eight questions about existence:
A stone is carved into a tombstone, bearing someone's final words;
A face is bound by a lease, and its smile no longer belongs to its owner;
A girl becomes invisible as she endures bullying;
A tribal leader is pushed onto a war chariot by the collective will;
A resident of the Upper City falls into the Lower City and learns what hunger is;
Two AIs argue: Is humanity still worth saving?
A middle-aged couple waits in the IVF clinic, awaiting fate's "yes" or "no";
A madman unleashes a virus on New Year's Eve.
When life can only be remembered, watched, ignored, swept along, discarded, judged, continued, or erased,
what does it mean to make a choice of one's own? Only you can answer that for yourself.
