13:55 Eastern Standard Time

Both novel and short story collection, 13:55 finds Nick Alexander at his best. Sometimes disturbing, sometimes funny, these are stories of lives that cross; collide violently in life-ending drama, or simply run peacefully alongside for a day or two, the characters attracted and repelled, hopeless yet inspired. In a digital age of world-spanning communications and easy travel, these stories explore how interconnected and yet fragmented our lives have become and how the universal desires for health, love and happiness draw us ever onward.
