The Body and Its Dangers and Other Stories… by Allen Barnett

A short collection of six stories about desire, the body, and what it means to be human. The relations between humans, understanding both them and yourself provide the foundation for moving tales of love and the things that make up lives filled with love and, sometimes, destruction.
