Blind Man's Eclipse

Description

Blind Man's Eclipse is three novellas that explore without flinching fundamental questions about how we live with ourselves and one another: Does capital punishment truly serve the greater good? Can obesity be beautiful - and, more important, what is beauty? Would the world be a better place if we had one religion instead of many? Taut, succinct, and infused with great feeling and detail, each story enters psychological shadows in search of why people think and act as they do when confronted with issues that define shared existence. This collection prompts deep thought while it intrigues and entertains. In reaching for the light while moving through the dark, it is sure to linger in the reader's mind well after the last page has been turned. (Source: Google Books API)
