Close Shaves - John Long

Close Shaves

By John Long
A new collection of edge of the seat adventure reading from the leading author/editor of gonzo storytelling, John Long. These stories will leave you breathless.  These stories are far more than mere page turners. They are events in which the kaleidoscope of people's lives were wrenched ninety degrees. The light shifted, and suddenly the colors and shards of glass settled into chaotic arrangements.

The landscape grew threatening, desperate, even hopeless. But they carried on in search of the order and grace that they sensed was the legacy of their ordeal. The search for meaning is always the business of the individual, but if these stories suggest nothing else, they suggest that adventure and life are the same thing; that to deny one is to limit the prospects of the other; that all adventures invariably point toward one mystery, the mystery of being alive. For those who fought through the long night to the light of day, thier stories are a timeless reminder of this. New Paperback.
