The Turbulent Tales Christopher Nwachukwu

The Turbulent Tales is a collection of poignant short stories that capture nostalgia, anguish, love, insecurity and desperate desires in varied human situations . From his vast travels and exposure to diverse cultures and languages, the author exhibits keen ability to bring fictional characters to life: in the dreary winter of semi-urban North Dakota; during a sweltering Rio Carnival; in the tedious routine of work in American retail stores and the maneuvering of residents in a hospice facility. With vivid description of his subjects' frailties and feelings the author weaves fascinating tales that will captivate any reader. The stories are masterfully crafted with keen eye on depictions of the dramas of human emotions and intrigues. In The Winter of White Wilderness the reader encounters proximities that provoke separations;the intriguing conflicts in A Hospice to Hope are vivid and touching. The pain and deception of Kamada as he hotly pursues Jibiti in The Carnival are as remarkable as they are revealing . The Big Store of Small Dreams and A Small Store of Big Dreams explore the psychology and idiosyncrasies that power our utilitarian generation.
