Green Monkey Dreams by Isobelle Carmody
"So, You Seek The Key To The Dream Of Life"
The
High Path is a road of sorrow. With all good intentions we are led on a
path of sacrifice, hardship and loss only to find that in the end we
are left alone in the world, separated from those we love through the
choices we have made, and left to face the consequences of an unknown
future alone. But even when all is lost the will to go on still remains.
The
Way Of The Beast speaks to the darker side of our human natures.
Beneath the smiles and kind gestures lurks a darkness that is capable of
causing great pain to those we care for through broken promises,
crushed dreams and shattered hearts. At times there are no answers, no
prays heard, only the darkness and the lost innocence of youth.
The
Worldroad teaches life lessons, and while some are able to inspire and
bring hope, others maybe learned all too late. It is our choices in life
that make us who we are, lead us where we are going and teach us what
we need to know. There are no right or wrong paths, only choices that
must be made.
Green Monkey Dreams is a
beautiful collection of short tales that are full of hope, tragedy and
bittersweet moments that haunt you long after their reading. A skilfully
written collection of magical tales of the fanciful, the quirky and the
everyday. Each story is a doorway to another land, another time or
anther reality where everything is at once both new and familiar in just
the same way that these stories are at once both unique and timeless.
