Primitive Terrain A book of short stories by Tim Pompey Sometimes nature is beautiful and sometimes perilous, but not nearly as dangerous or unpredictable as those people who inhabit its terrain. A narcissistic professor. A well-to-do couple. A cynical teenager. Each of them must face up to matters of life, love, and death. These stories are proof that what you encounter is not always what you see or believe. Sometimes there's more to life than reality. In these stories, humans must stretch beyond their boundaries if they hope to adapt, survive, and even find love in the vast expanses of their own primitive terrains.
