Beyond Solitude, a Cache of Alaska Tales

After 14 years living in Alaska, the author presents us with a cache of 15 intriguing stories from the solitude of America's northernmost state. The fictional characters that people this book each experience a very personal form of solitude and re-evaluate their situations and the challenge of isolation, both physical and emotional. Suspense, human interest, humor, adventure, romance, a touch of the mystical, and above all, the ability of the human spirit to survive and thrive is explored as they confront the solitude of their own psyches - heart, mind, and soul - and reach "beyond" the physical to, perhaps, the greatest solitude of all.
Praise for Beyond Solitude: "Expertly woven, Beyond Solitude is a compelling collection of short fiction with strong characters and a wonderful sense of place. However, the accumulated resonance of these pieces far transcends the merely regional and speaks to the human condition. A great read!"
- Bob Cherry, author of Little Rains and other titles from One Eyed Press
