Driftwood

Really? The Jersey Shore is more than casinos, beaches, Ferris wheels, and cotton candy? Indeed it is. The stories and poems in Driftwood, inspired by people, events, and tales from Atlantic and Cape May counties, take us to a place beyond the Garden State Parkway and the boardwalk.



These local authors open the door to a cabinet of curiosities that includes a man haunted by a disembodied voice, a beckoning railwayman, a headless ghost, a laundry worker who is not what he appears, and an old dog who gives two men more than they could ever return.



With selections ranging from noir to science fiction, Driftwood is a sunrise walk on the beach where you pause now and then to pick up a spiraled whelk or an oddly hued piece of sea glass, each a small gem, like the delightful finds in this anthology.
