Here: Earthbound Fantasies and Futures

Eight stories where ordinary people discover extraordinary solutions. A preschool teacher protects children from dangers only she can see. A grad student misses a Metro train, and finds herself. A widow's grief transforms into a gift that seeds change. From a Michigan university library that has hidden depths to Maryland suburbs where justice arrives in cream-colored robes, these tales find magic in unexpected alliances and clever workarounds. For readers who believe the best resistance happens when people who "shouldn't" matter decide that they do.
