{"product_id":"2940013079304","title":"Months and Seasons","description":"\"Months and Seasons\" is the follow-up story collection to Christopher Meeks' award-winning \"The Middle-Aged Man and the Sea.\"  With a combination of main characters from young to old, the tales combine drama and humor and pursue such people as a supermodel who awakens after open-heart surgery, a famous playwright who faces a firestorm consuming the landscape, a reluctant man who attends a Halloween party as Dracula, and a New Yorker who thinks she's a chicken. This collection made the long list of the prestigious Frank O'Connor International Short Story Award.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Christopher Meeks' quirky stories are lyrical and wonderfully human.

His stories are delightful and heart-rending, surprising and eerily familiar--chronicles, all, of the epic battles fought by ordinary characters one day at a time.\"\u003cbr\u003e     --author Gina B.
