Seasons of Change is the most recent in Scott"s acclaimed, long-running Black-and-White anthology series, and returns to publisher Outrider Press" recurring theme: the world of Nature with its endless panorama of shifting seasons on the personal, national and global levels. Standout short stories include award-winning journalist Catherine Fitzpatrick"s powerful "Birds of Paradise," in which a news reporter observes the disparity of a bag lady in the streets of New York during the glitzy annual ritual, Fashion Week. And from Allan Johnston"s prize-winning poem, "Hard," a stunning meditation on harsh, gray clouds and the moments when "death wears a similar face to weather--obstructive, constant, fickle. A wind turned on and off."
