Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An eclectic and original assortment of imaginative scenarios centered on Oregonian oddballs, characters, and just-plain folk make up Not True Stories from Oregon, a short story collection of highly unique and powerful tales of the human condition. Arran Gimba paints a broad portrait of the gritty and fascinating extremes that make up the human experience. Part fantasy, part slice of life, these twenty-one stories exhibit the worst fears and most impractical dreams of ordinary people. "Love is Over-Rated" tells of an anti-cupid who suddenly finds a conscience when he sees the impact of his calling. Three young students are drawn into the latest technology craze with disastrous consequences in "zPhone," while a hospital receptionist discovers that obsessing about the wrong thing can lead to a rude attitude adjustment in "Watch for Little Brother." Filled with stark and realistic situations and absorbing, multi-dimensional characters, Not True Stories from Oregon brings a seasoned and original voice to the short story form, exploring Oregon in all its wonderful weirdness.

Download or read book Temperance Creek written by Pamela Royes and published by Catapult. This book was released on 2016-06-01 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the early seventies, some of us were shot like stars from our parents' homes. This was an act of nature, bigger than ourselves. In the austere beauty and natural reality of Hell's Canyon of Eastern Oregon, one hundred miles from pavement, Pam, unable to identify with her parent's world and looking for deeper pathways has a chance encounter with returning Vietnam warrior Skip Royes. Skip, looking for a bridge from survival back to connection, introduces Pam to the vanishing culture of the wandering shepherd and together they embark on a four–year sojourn into the wilderness. From the back of a horse, Pam leads her packstring of readers from overlook to water crossing, down trails two thousand years old, and from the vantages she chooses for us, we feel the edges of our own experiences. It is a memoir of falling in love with a place and a man and the price extracted for that love. Written with deep lyricism, Temperance Creek is a work of haunting beauty, fresh and irreverent and rooted in the grit and pleasure of daily life. This is Pam's story, but the courage and truth in the telling is part of our human experience. Seen through a slower more primary mirror, one not so crowded with objectivity, Pam's memoir, is a kind of home–coming, a family reunion for shooting stars.
