Publisher's Synopsis
This is a collection of short stories probing beneath the surface of ordinary lives and unthinking assumptions to the startling hidden truth. The stories include: Escape to Parry Sound -- a man fights to save his family after society's collapse; Treading Water -- a best-selling author, with unexplainable depression, suddenly finds himself alone in dangerous waters; Nothing to Worry About -- prisoners in a concentration camp in Northern Ontario define the nature of resistance and learn exactly how far they will go to stay alive; Natural & Unnatural Animals -- a very clever mouse seeks to defeat an equally intelligent and remorseless housecat.
