Where we can't follow: A collection of short stories

Abstract

This humorous collection of short stories revolves around the lives of the patrons and employees who frequent the bars. When men and women come together to congregate over drinks, their conversations turn towards every topic except the important aspects of their various relationships. As underlying conflicts rise to the surface, and the situations become more comical, the characters are faced with a brief epiphany about the true nature of their personalities. Rather than becoming inspired by these moments of clarity, these men and women resist the urge to change. The liquor continues to flow, inhibitions flounder, and these characters hurtle down a path that can only lead to more comical situations.
