Broken Umbrellas is an unusual literary work that explores human beings' most primitive emotions and feelings through a series of different, interconnected stories. These are stories that explore madness and dementia as alternative avenues for surviving a reality that overwhelms us. The author reflects upon the value of death and freedom, and takes us through the ins and outs of repressed violence-always unjustified-but so often desired. Broken Umbrellas intends to be much more than just a collection of stories. Through its words, it seeks to offer introspective reading, rouse reflective analysis of the human spirit, and provide electrifying amusement-only for the most daring.
