Tremor, Earth

Tremor, Earth is a collection of fifteen original stories about fear that immobilizes. The first person narrator of these stories is attempting to find a haven within the harsh, ever-shifting landscapes (illustrated by the frequent setting of earthquake-prone southern California) and her failure to locate stable ground. In addition to the danger physical landscapes present, the narrator's body also presents ground as unstable and dangerous as desert lakebeds or winding suburban roads. These stories depict the reasons to tremor: standing helpless while facing a force that can move the earth itself.
