The Tyranny of Habit Stanley G Robertson

The short stories in this collection are characterized by elegant prose that takes familiar themes and elevates them to brilliant and entertaining flights of imagination. All of the stories are unforgettable with a subtle moral message that will leave you with a lasting impression, moving you for days and weeks after you have completed them. The title story, The Tyranny of Habit, which features three siblings who possess peculiar and bizarre habits, delves into the hazards of a life of bad idiosyncrasies, and it underscores how bad habits can shatter a life of happiness. The stories have no boundaries in time or space, ranging from the 15th century to 500 years into the future. All of the stories are brilliantly articulated with an air of expectancy, a touch of realism, and engaging plot twists and turns that lead to a sense of satisfaction that will leave you smiling and wanting more. If your busy schedule keeps you from reading as much as you would like, this short story collection may be just the ticket. Pop it in your bag and take it with you wherever you go. You can read a quick story while waiting in the doctor's office, in the nail shop, on a train, or during lunch break. Even if you don't complete the entire book, you'll get a sense of satisfaction when you finish one story. But be careful, these stories are like potato chips - you can't read just one. Enjoy!
