Glimpse. Lisa Mathisen

Forty imagined scenes from forty imagined lives. Glimpse is a different kind of short story collection, highlighting scenes or short "glimpses" into the lives of the characters. Cry with a Goth rocker in London in one scene, then blink and travel to heaven with an angel in another. Laugh with a middle aged woman on a crowded bus, then flip to another scene and soar with a seagull in search of Cheetos. Some scenes are poignant; some hilarious, some sad, some ironic. Just like life.
