Books with author Campbell Morris

In the future, the world has shrunk. Science has come to a slow crawl, and all the people look almost exactly alike. Sarita is one of the exceptions. With her different looks and wild nature, Sarita is in for the party of her life. Her boyfriend Dan is going to propose at the end of the party. Sarita's high society, wealthy parents expect her to accept. And the worse part? A boy from a dream she's had every night for a month shows up-real-at the party. A dream in which her boyfriend stabs him. Sarita has the rest of the party to find the truth. Is the mystery boy a lucky guesser? Is Dan mentally unstable? What she finds is more than she went looking for.

Over 13 centuries old, the Japanese form of tanka, often referred to as “small songs”, are poetry of thought, feeling and personal reflection. Using symbolic, metaphorical and imaginative language, Pris Campbell explores the passion of a first love shaped and affected by the Vietnam War, of a second love sculpted by the sea and betrayal, and a lasting love that continues to be a sanctuary as the world storms around her.
