The Eleventh Ending

The Eleventh Ending by Joseph Santiago is a unique collection of speculative stories that delve into themes such as burnout, boundaries, and the complexities of adulthood. Through a blend of weird fiction and dark humor, the narratives explore the journey of self-discovery, featuring characters who face their fears, challenge societal norms, and confront grief and love in unconventional ways. With tales of a retired fraud investigator and a school compliance officer, among others, the book suggests that true endings are often chosen and fought for, rather than handed down.
