Fresh. Short. Unexpected. This multi-genre anthology takes on the question of what it means to care in 43 stories, poems, micro-fiction, art, and comics. Edward Albert once said, "The simple act of caring is heroic." This collection of single-sitting reads proves that statement with each turn of the page: - A refugee sacrifices to provide for her children - A salty, old author brings together a 20th-century father and son - Romance blooms in New York's winter snow - In a dystopian world, one civil servant confronts how much she's willing to give to save the species - A dog walker runs a much darker enterprise for the good of her charges - And many more Curated from submissions sent in from around the globe, HEROIC CARE includes everything from comics to poetry, short stories to micro-fiction. It includes memoir, sci-fi, romance, fantasy, contemporary realism, literary reflection, and everything in between. These different takes on the meaning of care will inspire, affirm, and challenge ideas of what it means to be express ourselves genuinely to the world around us. Like, V.E. Schwab meets Chicken Soup for the Soul in this fictional anthology about the power of caring. An ideal reading experience for small groups exploring what it means to care for others during trying times. A perfect conversation starter for book clubs, friends, therapists, community leaders, and families. Click on the author page to see a trailer.
