Synopsis
Of Eyes, Voices, and Serpents: And Other Classic Tales of Adventure and Politics is a compelling blend of realism and fantasy, fiction and truth, and fluff and poignancy. It criticizes the free market gone too far. It lashes out against the communist state. It takes light topics seriously (see its delightful take on pogs) and serious topics lightly (see any and all references to politics and politicians). Most of the endnotes are fabricated, but a few are from legitimate sources. All the stories are fiction that occasionally borrow from real-life events.
