Disappearing Things: Selected Flash Fiction

"Robert Pope's latest collection offers a beautifully rendered selection of short stories in which reality and dreams overlap in a most captivating way. Pope is an accomplished author whose love of language is clear. He uses it with precision and poise to create fiction which may be funny, dark, often wild, and always original. Be ready to meet some quirky protagonists facing challenging moments in their lives. Compelling enough, one might say, but then you'll be taken to some surprising and quite unexpected places-every time. An impressive book I wholeheartedly recommend." Laura Black Editor, Fictive Dream These stories are mindscapes where the ancient past overlaps the present future, where ghosts co-exist with the living, where dream has encroached upon reality. The results are funny if you tilt your head one way or the other. Otherwise, they are somber reminders of ourselves.
