Narratives in Pill Form William Olmstead

William Olmstead writes humorous stories about angry, confused people in desperate circumstances. Whether poignant, bewildering, or laugh-out-loud funny, whole worlds come together and sometimes fall apart in the very brief stories that comprise this collection. A mysterious stranger confounds a small village; a mongrel dog jinxes a family; a man in ancient Galilee searches for a good carpenter; a prophet shares his internal organs; a shootout with terrorists in the backwoods; a man is beset with the evil eye; gods; warriors; gunmen from another world; nuclear powered motorcycles; rhinoceroses; mimes; artists; and just plain folks -- it's all here and more! Narratives in Pill Form is an indelible restorative for our busy world.
