    About this ebook

    From the strained jokes between survivors in the post-apocalyptic story "To the Brotherhood," to a single crushing sentence in "The Argument," LOBSTER CAKE AND OTHER STORIES focuses on the interactions people have with one another. Whether it's an argument, friendly chatter, or seeing just how deep the rabbit hole can take you.

    With a focus on dialogue and narrative story telling, Leigh Green has assembled a few pieces of flash fiction across a spread of genres. Though the retelling of a Norse myth in "Cocaine and Keytars" and the cheerful moment between two lovers in "Lobster Cake" may seem worlds apart, they both showcase how we interact with those we are close to.

    LOBSTER CAKE AND OTHER STORIES seeks to display a broad spectrum of emotional relationships in all forms of love, be it the love of family, the love of friends, or the pain of love lost.
