Tarnished

A collection of disturbing works by J. Michael Fader including poetry, short stories and artwork. J. Michael Fader's new book "Tarnished" is very unique and refreshing. The stories and poetry are written to communicate the deeper darker aspects of life instead of the mundane "...flowers are pretty..." crap. People can relate to the stories of lost loves, lost lives, depression, sadness, horror and turmoil which makes them feel more "normal" because upon reading the book, they realize they are not the only ones who have felt this way, or had these impure thoughts and beliefs. I give it TWO THUMBS UP and highly recommend it to anyone who is ready to see life the way it really is - not the filtered, backlit, airbrushed, censored version.
