In "Immortal," Susan Knier's seventh collection of short fiction, the reader will continuously meet indelible characters. Two sisters clash in their vastly different memories of life with their mother in "Final Errand." In "Wiggle Room," a boy simultaneously learns about the elegance of math and the fragility of life. A dispirited teacher finds solace and direction in an alternate reality in "Blossom." In the titular story "Immortal," a 112 year-old assistant pastor publicly addresses an internet rumor that he is immortal. The short fiction is followed by a selection of the author's poetry and a dream gallery containing a compelling mix of humor, drama, satire, philosophy and celebrity appearances.
