Here are twenty brand new literary melodies in a SYMPHONY OF STORIES.The word-music of the stories is put into the form and framework of a symphony. First, an Andante, the going-along, the sequence of events that make up a narrative. Then, an Adagio, which is the tragic, followed by a Scherzo, the comic. The literary symphony concludes with an Allegro, the triumph.The themes of the stories are some of the most basic: Longing for love, finding love, suffering disappointment in love, and losing love. Sex as farce. Ambition and the frustration of ambition. Art, music, literature, and our electronic techno-culture. The individual in society. The sane, the insane, and doubts about which is which. SYMPHONY OF STORIES, in all, the wondrous complexities of the human.
