World Without Love: Parts One & Two - A Collection of Short Stories that Together Tell a Story With this series of connected allegories - personal, yet universal - Dallas Doctor has crafted an insightful, multidimensional tale - expressed simply, candidly, and courageously. The author unflinchingly (sometimes explicitly) explores excommunication, exile, longing for belonging, illusion, meaning, misunderstanding, arrogance, comeuppance, absurdity, futility, friendship, and ultimately, hope - all in the context of growing up in the era of sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll. Anyone who has ever grown up - or tried to - will love these stories.
