One spring evening, Tim Grey became restless...
A lonely professor living on a rural Indiana farm...a good-looking young man on a motorcycle...
An unexpected obsession...dark, dangerous, sensual...and spiraling out of control...
A haunting, evocative reimagining of the myth of Narcissus...

Praise for John Stewart Wynne's short fiction:
The Other World
"Wynne's perspective is dark and terrifying, and is made all the more so by his stark, vivid descriptions of contorted states of mind, and, strangely, by his beautiful, at times lyrical language." —- The James White Review
"Wynne's prose is chiseled and precise. And in pages that tremble with beauty, Wynne gracefully reveals the darker side of human possibilities." —- Details Magazine
The Sighting
"John Wynne is obviously an exciting talent..." —- Hubert Selby, Jr.
"There is nothing else quite like it for no other writer has experimented with gay experience in the context of growing up in straight America in such a direct, sensual and imaginative manner." —- Gordon Montador, The Body Politic
