'trenches parallax leapfrog' is a selection of 3 short fictions first written between 2000 and 2003 (when the author was in his early 20s) and re-edited in 2020 (in his early 40s). the stories are a culmination of an identity driven to its most absurd extremes. varied incarnations of this maniacal consciousness navigate spaces where conventions and codes are fences to be brushed up against, where the exploratory spirit fulminates against the rigors of ancient authority, and where the future is at war with the past-spaces that, even when visited in retrospect, offer no hope for solutions, but only more maddening and beautiful questions.
