An unsuspecting traveler finds himself in a manor with the most unusual mirrors; a murdered florist is avenged by her most trusted companions; in an African village, rumor tells of a river bride; traffic comes to a halt for the practice known as "necklacing;" a desperate writer makes a bargain with his muse and discovers what it means to live for ones art. The common thread weaving through each of these narrative poems is a breathtaking exploration of the human condition. Combining the very best elements of the short story and poetry genres, spanning from medieval times through the present day, these poetic stories are a balanced combination of original fantasy tales and social commentary. With themes ranging from the eerie to the humorous and topics such as child neglect, these fast-paced stories of life, death, and everything in-between are sure to take you on an unforgettable journey to other worlds. As entertaining as it is thought provoking, "Tales of Fantasy and Reality" is a riveting, insightful, and altogether arresting compilation.

SPR Review - Cate Baum. "The poems in this collection are often misty and enigmatic, with delightful twists, surprise endings, unexpected humor, and in places, lovely language and imagery. The story-poems in Tales Of Fantasy And Reality are suggestive of an oral culture, and like much poetry are far more effective when read aloud." Voix des Arts - Joseph Newsome. "It is apparent from the first page that the imagination of author Chinwe John is a thing of wonder, encompassing modernist realism and the flights of fancy that shape her work." About the Author: Chinwe D. John has been creating magical worlds for as long as she can remember. She is the author of the upcoming Time Shield fantasy novel series. Her love of Fairy/Folk tales, Goth, Classic literature and Social anthropology, are evident in her work. In addition to her artistic pursuits, she is a board certified practicing Physician.
