Description

The Body Parts Shop is a collection of intriguingly perverse, provocative tales that encompass both the beautiful and grotesque nature of human interaction. The stories combine as a wayward declaration to the physical form, while independently delving into the secret and sordid recesses of our darker subconscious. "The History of My Breasts" is an enchantingly bizarre tale of outrageous and unapologetic infatuation. "The Scalp Agency" chronicles the efforts of a bald stockbroker to buy himself a new head of hair. In Lynda Schor's satirical view of America, every message is an advertisement and everything is for sale-our beliefs, our thoughts, our private moments, and our body parts.
