The Zen of Elevator Travel Ted Torres

In Metairie, Louisiana, a young woman revels in the solitary exercise that is riding in an elevator, as across town, a father attempts to pedal his way back into his childhood via a late-night bike ride in his quiet suburban neighborhood. Meanwhile, a young executive climbs the corporate ladder through the strangest of mind-bending means as just moment earlier, a lonely man awakens in his car to the fact that he may have the latent impulses and instincts of a serial killer. If only they knew just how interconnected their seemingly different timelines will become. The Zen of Elevator Travel is an exploration of timelines, a sweeping collection of ten stories to be read as a piece of extended fiction or individually, as a set of collective, fateful brushstrokes.
