Joseph Filice

Solitary Pursuits Joseph Filice

A futuristic theme park devoted to 20th century literature...a senile comic book writer whose superheroic dreams come disastrously true...bad-attitude aliens who steal the Mona Lisa and Elvis' Cadillac just to be annoying...a burnt-out scientist who suspects that the woman hitting on him at a "white trash" party may hold the meaning of his life... Here are all seventeen of Joseph Filice's short stories, inventive, fantastical, sometimes surreal...but always poignantly, wittily, romantically human.
