Twisted tales of real life macabre. Our worst fears in adolescence, our worse fears in adulthood graphically and emotionally displayed with vital examples of characters faced with dilemma. In reading one might put themselves in the story, begin to feel exasperated and sweating in their shoes, trying to run away and seek refuge again in their own lives. Townsend beautifully masters the short story in both psychological and literal expression.
