Más información sobre el libro

People moving. Toilets transforming. The world spins faster than ever before. At Elysium, change comes at a price, but do humans recognize the string they put on the world? What is sacrilegious and what is beautiful is determined by the eye of the beholder. Women breaking out of the shrinking boundaries of the patriarchy. A boy doesn't recognize his best friend until he hears his voice. Mum says you're different now even though you sound the same. The lock turns; liberation from pain in the back of a taxi. We may choose to bind ourselves, or wait for our own wings to form. It could take some time, but we all will learn how to heal. Change is a constant component of human history. It is how we at on it that defines the world. Sixteen original works ranging from reflective fiction to feminist poetry, give voice to the ever-dominating theme of metamorphosis.
