Scott Fitzgerald\"A short story is the ultimate close-up magic trick - a couple of thousand words to take you around the universe or break your heart.\" - Neil GaimanLife is a Metaphor. A metaphor is a symbol. A symbol is a sign. Watch for the signs. Like all stories, they can be watered-down to act as metaphor or parables; but unlike parables, metaphors can be interpreted differently, depending on the subject. A waning metaphor therefore, only sustains resolve if a person decides to recognize it. The literary short plays an important role for the reader.What could be more rewarding than a quick read? Instant gratification through story-telling? This anthology features multiple genres and zero commitment.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Michael Poeltl\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0981316891\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780981316895\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Skylab Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/19\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 180\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.41d","brand":"Michael Poeltl","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48435755876607,"sku":"9780981316895","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_07e96575-cf22-45dc-a4f3-852ac9ec3166.jpg?v=1777152504","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/waning-metaphorically-michael-poeltl-9780981316895","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
