One Way Ticket (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781926956138)

Years after a near-miraculous birth imposes impossible life expectations on him, a lonely and unaccomplished man tries to radically reinvent himself. A prominent female author is stricken with a writing block just a few hours before she is scheduled to deliver the keynote speech of her life. On a train, a struggling former advertising executive becomes paralyzed by the silent presence of a young woman who reminds him of a lost love who derailed his life and career. "One Way Ticket" is a riveting collection of stories that explore the jagged psychic journey of characters forced by circumstance and fate to rewrite their life narrative or be destroyed by it. These powerful character-driven stories, told with wit and sensitivity, challenge us to examine our own lives and the personal choices we make.
