Enantiodromia

The author very kindly sent me a copy for my reading enjoyment! This is my second short story collection in a row, and I'm about to start a third. Have I turned a new leaf?
en·an·ti·o·dro·mi·a: the tendency of things to change into their opposites, especially as a supposed governing principle of natural cycles and of psychological development. 
This short story collection is certainly one of the more diverse ones I've ever read. The author takes you from post-WWII Madagascar all the way to ancient Babylon and back. I'm impressed with the author's ability to write about perspectives I can only imagine he has never experienced.
My favorite for sure was ‘You Might Get It'. An alcoholic widower wishes for nothing more than for his wife to come home...but he doesn't specify how. Definitely some dark humor and a bit morbid, but it was also a cool take on a sometimes overused horror story. 
The writing is great, I found that all of the diverse places read as well done and researched, and I enjoyed every page. 
Personally a 5/5*. Absolutely worth your time, effort, or money to read!
