by David Lange (Author)

In this richly varied anthology, David Lange opens the door to a world of imagination, memory, and emotional truth. Written largely during the COVID-19 pandemic and featuring both newly created and previously published works, the collection showcases a writer rising to the challenge of crafting meaningful stories across genres-each under the pressure of just a few weeks between deadlines.

The result is a powerful tapestry of short stories, essays, and poems that span humor and heartbreak, nostalgia and discovery. Whether drawing from personal history or exploring fictional realms, Lange's writing is unified by a voice that is thoughtful, sincere, and deeply human.

Fly through a stormy Midwestern night in Twisted Sky, relive the awkward ache of adolescence in Quid Pro Quo - A Cruel Betrayal, and feel the magic of first love in Last Card, First Kiss. Whether reflecting on Three Summers of road-tripping wonder, watching an epic scene of survival unfold at a Medieval monastery in Brotherly Love, or reflecting upon the final farewell of a gentle giant in Silent Sea, Lange's stories blend the personal and the universal with a storyteller's heart and a keen eye for those elements of life that unite us

Flapper and the Captain and Other Flights of Fancy is more than an anthology-it is a testament to resilience, creativity, and the enduring magic of storytelling.
