About the BookThis collection of short stories features a diverse array of travelers who cross paths between the U.S. and eight African nations. They are challenged, sometimes deeply disturbed, but always brought to see the world anew. Their stories reflect the tangle of cross-cultural interactions that take place every day as real travelers from real places try to connect despite all the differences that so easily divide. About the AuthorTim Bascom, who directs the Kansas Book Festival, is the author of a novel, two collections of essays, and two prize-winning memoirs about years spent in East Africa as a youth: Chameleon Days and Running to the Fire. His essays have been selected for the anthologies Best Creative Nonfiction and Best American Travel Writing. His short fiction has appeared in journals such as Zone 3, Front Range Review, and Flint Hills Review, winning the 2021 Briar Cliff Fiction Prize. Bascom received his MFA from the University of Iowa and taught creative writing for 20 years at a college level.
