Summary

Do you want to laugh? Do you want to cry? Do you want to feel alive? Do you want to experience the adrenaline of edge-of-your-seat suspense? Do you want to learn what true love is? From the story of a man who clings to a life less lived to the man who begs to put an end to his charmed life, from the children who try to escape their sadistic parent to the mother who will stop at nothing to hide the crimes of her child, this amazing collection of short stories is a must-listen.

Vigilantes, bank robbers, extraordinary birthday presents, unforgettable road trips, forbidden love, and water--The Name of the Book offers all of this and more. While it does not attempt to answer the age old question "why are we here?" it will definitely tell you what is here. And it is everywhere!
