You Were the Last Angie Kenny

This is a collection of interconnected short stories that walk the fine line between fantasy and reality. What if you woke tomorrow and everyone had disappeared? Everyone in your life. Everyone on earth was gone. Where would you go? What would you do? What would anything mean? The stories explore love, loss, time and what it means to exist. "We almost never know the last time we see someone or talk to him that it will be the last time. It's not until much later when we look back and remember and say to ourselves, oh...that was the last time. Even if we say or think, I never want to see you again. We usually suppose we will. The actual goodbye is rarely as dramatic as the preparing to say goodbye. It's usually just some Tuesday or Thursday or Sunday in May or June or November when we say so long or goodnight or perhaps I'll see you later. But we don't. And it's not until later that we realize, oh...that was it. That was the last time." I was alone. I was completely alone. Then there was you. You were the last.
