Sobre IBD

This conglomeration of short writings romps neck-deep in the human condition. With humor, wit, and great empathy, Susan Emshwiller lovingly explores a myriad of lives. From the mundane event of a glass breaking in a couple’s home, to power trips between rich and poor during the apocalypse. From siblings arguing over their parents’ ashes, to a mother experiencing an invasion of bugs-or something worse. You’ll encounter holiday hell, subversive love, family dysfunction, mythological creatures, mulberry trees, desire, goats, redemption, shattered innocence, death, and hope. These unforgettable characters will linger in you long after their stories end.
