About this book
An unhappy orphan who finds solace in paper cut-outs of her parents, an Indian doctor who displays his medical degree in his taxi cab, and waiters who tamper with fortune cookie are some of the vibrant characters who are brought to life in this anthology of six monologues that revolve around paper. From drama to comedy to crime-thriller, Yee brings us a variety of plots and characters in a series of imaginative, thought-provoking vignettes.

reading
the

was
a
feeling
of
connectedness,
to
the
world,
to
myself
and
to

sense
of
David

his
genius
for
showing
the
surface

the
underneath
at

Wasn’t
this
what
a
play
was?
And
then
I
did
a
brief
investigation
into
the
etymology
of
the
word
and
discovered
that
anthology
comes
from
the
Greek
anthologia
meaning
“bouquet
of
flowers.”
So
there
I
was,
wrong

most

But
beware,
look
past
the

into
the

there
is
a
twinkle
of

and
amid

thorns.
