Description
The Amount to Carry Stories
This collection of twelve stories showcases Carter Scholz's remarkable range and narrative gifts. From the surface of the moon to the New Jersey suburbs, his tales explore the places where science and fiction intersect in the human mind.
These mind-expanding, entertaining, and often disquieting stories probe the worlds we call home and measure our alienation. With bravura performances of the imagination, Scholz invites readers into a universe that is both familiar and unsettling.
