Thank you @KellyALacey

#Ad #LBTCrew #BookTwitter for letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book.
I like the front cover it is very interesting with the person and the dog on the houses and the hands and arms above them with a ladder and the sun. Letters from Inside is a collection of short stories that are written extremely well. The short stories are very interesting and creepy to read that I enjoyed reading. It was nice to read something different from my normal reading. The stories are short, and you could read them in a couple of hours each story is brilliant and keeps you hooked. Letters from Inside by Mike Maggio is the first book I have read from him. I will be looking forward to the next one. 5 stars out to buy now.

A woman sacrifices her children to save herself in an act of desperation. A political prisoner succumbs to his worst fears in a struggle to survive. A politician disappears in the midst of a reelection campaign only to be replaced by a cockroach who has assumed his likeness.
Letters from Inside is a collection of stories that defy logic and yet tap into unrecognized truths about modern society: a twenty-first century vision of existential dysphoria. Heavily influenced by Kafka and Gogol, Mike Maggio confronts realities that stare us daily in the face, realities we blithely ignore as we blindly go about our daily lives.
Written over a period of 30 years, this collection of stories gathers the best of Maggio’s work, including the critically acclaimed Suddenly, There Was Harold, which has been called his masterpiece.
