Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The tales in this collection are those of an inveterate insomniac. The characters, and their predicaments, come on stage when the lights are not quite focused, the cues still muffled from the curtains of fantasy. Perhaps it is fitting. My pretensions to competence, if such there were, are in the philosophy of science, where the debate was and continues to be: how much is invention and how much is real. ’Tis no different in my insomniac excursions.Those characters that come into focus? Some are invention, some are real.
