Humorous, lyrical, and based on contemporary and metaphysical theories, these stories bring the foibles of human nature into the realm of the \"Just Ending.\" A paleontologist's wife, who is a closet collector herself, discovers that \"you have to take it with you\" in the afterlife. An armchair traveler melts through a wormhole in a church in Italy. A handful of people incarnate over and over, taking turns as lover, deceiver, warrior, friend. A timid woman's soul adds another version of herself each time she is frightened, and they nearly collide. A stonecutter is fought over by Saturn and Jupiter, then released. A master chocolatier dies in a seeming earthquake and walks through the rubble only to find the river Lethe. And ten more.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnna Marie Laforest is the author of \"Goddess Stories,\" a literary collection of goddesses from various cultures discovering their sacred callings; \"Double Takes,\" a mystery novel; and \"Breath by Breath: Growing Up During My Mother's Polio Years,\" a Detroit memoir.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 144\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.34 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 19, 2008\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52536671338803,"sku":"9781534667020","price":23.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/NzcxdlhCa3gzODgrSUxWZFVtUVNhdz09.webp?v=1760792310","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/en-ca\/products\/little-comedies-about-death-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
