Plane Tales is a quirky book of stories involving different people, airplanes, and faraway places in foreign countries. What happens when you leave your faithless lover by boarding a plane to Israel? How do you balance the desire to live outside your familiar in a foreign country and still love your spouse who abhors change? Can a person really find peace following grave despair by having a foot massage in Thailand? Is it possible to live your entire life in South Central Los Angeles and then meet your soul mate in a café in central Paris? Is there such a thing as hate crime in Amsterdam? These are the kinds of questions that drive the characters described in the ten short stories included in this imaginative little book, which transports the reader to another place in an exotic setting in which each character struggles to make things right.
