Prepare to think as you explore these wildly disparate literary short stories by author, composer, and producer Stephen Geez. Avoiding any single genre, this collection showcases Geez's storytelling from southern gothic to contemporary drama to coming-of-age, humor, sci-fi, and fantasy-all finessed to say something about who we are and what we seek. Some of these have been passed around enough to need a shot of penicillin, others so virgin they have never known the seductive gaze of a reader's eyes. So when life's currents get to pulling too hard, don't fight it, just open the book and discover nineteen new ways of going with the flow, because NOW more than ever Comes this Time to Float.

Managing pain with opioids is a science-except politics, money, and overzealous law enforcement are denying American patients the relief they so desperately need. Demonizing the best pain reliever we have leads to needless suffering, even suicides, and it drives the rise in deadly street drugs. Helen Borel gathers and presents the evidence, the intimidation, the raids of clinics, the chilling effect on those very professionals we trust to care for our loved ones and ourselves. She looks hard at the Veterans Administration, Drug Enforcement Agency, Department of Justice, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Chapters include "The Suboxone Hoax," "The Wrong Arms of the Law," and "The Epidemic of Death," plus an entire section on solutions for this widespread crisis. Read American AGONY now-or youmight be the next one hurt.
