Up Yours, Georgie! Morris Ossias

Up Yours, Georgie! is no ordinary book. Comprising seven short stories, this compilation is the debut work of author Morris Ossias, OD, who didn't start writing until after he turned ninety.



Inspired by his own life experiences, which include growing up in New York City and being stationed in Alaska during WWII, as well as the stories he's heard from friends and family over the years, Ossias creates a wide range of characters and plunges them into unique yet relatable dramas. From the United States to Israel; from family relationships to military action; from the Great Depression to the late twentieth century; these stories cover a variety of topics, locations, eras, and themes.



While the title tale, "Up Yours, Georgie!" introduces you to a disarming convict on death row who is relating his life story of murder, intrigue, and romance, "Dee" presents the inspiring story of a young Athabaskan woman's journey from poverty and disgrace to a full and successful life through her determination and the support of a GI friend.



Whether you like stories to surprise or inspire you, this compilation, finely imbued with the author's ninety-plus years of living, covers the range of human emotions.
