The Class Menagerie II

These stories collectively deal with just about everything that can befall us, even the young, in life--such things as abortion, student burnout, lost love, lost friends, the death of a parent, the death of a spouse, the death of a close friend, transgender anxiety, religious obsession, leaving home, coming back home, broken vows, broken hearts, broken dreams -- in short all the things that weave the tapestry of a life in us and all around us. These stories are surprising in their range and maturity.
