NOTAUSGANG: EMERGENCY EXIT, PURE SLUSH, VOL. 2: A REVIEW
24 stories by 23 writers, all based on the same overall theme: Emergency Exit. What image does that theme create in the mind? Well, this book contains 24 possible ones.
Every story in this collection, while based on the same theme, is well-crafted, rich in the detail of countless settings, and full of interesting and unique characters, each with their own journey through life, with all its unpredictable twists and turns.
I'd love to include details about each story, but then I'd give them away, and that would be cheating each and every one of you out of the pleasure of reading them for yourself. Definitely read Notausgang. All the stories are short ones, yet each contains their characters' lifetimes and then some--each seeking some type of 'emergency exit' in their own way.
You'll like these characters, you'll fear them, you'll laugh with them, and you'll lose all hope right along with them. This anthology will take you on an emotional roller-coaster ride and you'll enjoy every second.
