The Memory Caves

Exploring the oftentimes dark caverns of the human condition, Thomas Wells' The Memory Caves takes its readers on an emotional odyssey. And as that word implies, it can often be eye-opening. Particularly as Wells addresses such increasingly hot-button issues as the effects of AI and mass shootings, while also delving into more "classic" problems of humanity. For example, that tried-and-true plight of any non-narcissist: feelings of total insignificance in an infinite universe. But whatever topic Wells tackles in this artful, affecting collection, he does so with an undeniable passion. And yes, even hope for humanity's future.
