Let me serve others by giving a brief respite from routine thoughts. I lack the material wealth to build a hospital or library, but if my animal stories make you relax and chuckle instead of worrying about problems, then I have succeeded far beyond Jeff Bezos, for he has only his billions, but I have a new friend. - Aldek's Bestiary Preface.
Here you'll find the humorous plot twists and unusual characters of great fiction, but these tales touch on deeper truths about our psyches and our species.
Barack Obama said, literature and art remind us of our own folly, our presumptions, our selfishness and our shortsightedness. What books, art and stories can also do is remind you of the joys and hope and beauty we share.
*How did Barack Obama know exactly how to describe Aldek's Bestiary?*
