Views Cost Extra: Short Stories

Views that inspire, that calm, or that terrify ? all come at some cost to the viewer. In Views Cost Extra you will find a New Jersey high school preppy who wants to inhabit the ?perfect? cowboy movie, a rural mailman disgusted with the residents of his town who wants to live with the penguins, an ailing screen writer who strikes a deal with Johnny Cash to reverse an old man?s failures, an old man who ponders a young man?s suicide attempt, a one-armed blind blues singer who wants to reunite with the car that took her arm on the assembly line -- and more. These stories suggest that we must pay something to live even ordinary lives.
