About this ebook
On Dying features two flash fiction stories which involve characters dealing with the impending nature of death. In "Floating," a hopeless and lonely man spends his final moments alive tripping on a hallucinogenic drug. In "Hell Is a Lonely Place," Henry, an elderly man with mouth cancer, struggles to take care of his wife with Alzheimer's. Both of these psychological dramas are meant to be a beautiful documentation of misery.
