Discovering her own power, Charlie ultimately defied The Man In Black, but at a cost.

The 58 stories of Rain Check explore the vast universes that exist within the 1,000 word confines of flash literature. The material leaps gracefully from the humorous, the heartbreaking, reverent, profane, carnal, and the ethereal. Noe makes us feel bound in deeply personal moments and experiences that, in turn, tap into the unifying humanity that binds us all. Rain Check zooms in and out of the macro and microscopic, while always keeping a keen eye on the multi-faceted mystery of being that seems to only make sense through contradiction.

"Je hais les voyages et les explorateurs", toute première phrase de l'ouvrage, affirme sans détour son rejet de l'exotisme comme porte vers le sensationnel.

You know exactly the kind of problems you are facing but you just do not have the power to make the changes in you.

When you have power without truth and love, people will suffer because power can be abused. Those are some of the examples.

Opera altissima sulla natura del male e sulla natura dell'uomo, "I sommersi e i salvati" rappresenta un contributo importante alla fondazione di una nuova, vigile coscienza critica.
