Eve the Inventor by Karen Greenbaum-Maya is a hybrid collection of poems, prose, and short fiction inspired by the Jewish story that God will not destroy the world as long as there are 36 good people, good souls in it. The characters in this collection aren't secular saints, they are decent people, deeply decent, struggling against painful burdens. Eve the Inventor explores the painfulness that exists simply because of the way the world is.

From the Book of Atmospheres by Robert Scotellaro is a collection of micro and flash stories that explore life at a slant. Often surreal/fabulistic, there is a universality that threads their fabric in unexpected ways. In these tales, imagination is a welcomed guest. And it is clear that light and dark can, in easy union, inhabit these small but flexible spaces.
