This collection of two novellas and three short stories is concerned with displacement-both physical and emotional. A young immigrant woman with a visionary gift strives for freedom in an unfamiliar new country and from her own patriarchal family. Men of a certain age encounter unpredictable events as they confront mortality and the passing of relationships. A homeless Jamaican chef whose past defies reason gets justice in the present. A hapless real estate agent tangles with foreign gangsters, star-crossed love, and the question, who am I?


Morganstern writes with kindness and humor, and with a freewheeling hallucinatory sensibility. He transports us from culinary delights to mystical visions, seamlessly merging the mundane with the mysterious to uncover something new beneath the everydayness of American life.

Morganstern, Mark: - Mark Morganstern left a budding music career behind when he realized he didn't want to play weddings in a cover band. He parlayed a long-term literary interest into an MA in Creative Writing from the City University of New York, subsequently subbing in a high school and booking music acts in his family cafe. These days, he writes, submits, files rejections, gets published. He believes in fiction.
