Metamorphoses' features a collection of strange tales and science fiction: some being derivative of popular film, novellas, fairy tales and urban legends. It includes ten short stories and flash fiction pieces related to cyberpunk, horror, and science fantasy. Themes embrace alien abduction, extraterrestrial arrivals, other-world colonization, gene splicing and ectogenesis. Franz Kafka's Metamorphosis is revisited in one of the tales and inspired the title of the collection. A place in the author's hometown inspired the legend of the 'The Thirteen Curves'. A harrowing experience in the North Country woods involving cougars and hypothermia incited 'Without Eyes' and was the first story the author ever set to paper, crafted with ink and ribbon on a Brother Model WP-760D electric typewriter. 'In Vivo' speculates on designer babies and is mimetic of the author's personal life and experiences in a biracial family with an adopted brother. 'Bastian Dies' is based on a disturbing dream the author had in a misty-laden hostel of Thurso, Scotland a long time ago; it occurred on the eve of deathly tidings that came as if on the wings of a raven. 'Metamorphoses' is a time capsule of one writer's journey.*This is a revised edition. This anthology is about 78 pages and 38,000 words.
