Praise for The Way to My Heart"Let these works of literature remind us that food and drink intrinsically link us to memory. With just a sip of a wine, you can be transported to a first date, a bedside in Paris, or a tapas bar in Spain. In reading these sexy and honest works of fiction and poetry, it is hard not to make a beeline to the kitchen for a little amuse-bouche or nightcap, so just give in. Pour a little Pinot Noir and indulge in this evocative collection."-Rita Mookerjee, PhD Candidate in Literature, Florida State University

The reader learns through many documents-police reports, legal depositions, speech transcripts, and diary entries-that a human company named HealthCorp has attempted to enslave two alien species: the Laffians stranded on a planet-wide ocean and the feline HoFe living on a bed of hofellium. Now, those same aliens have come to Earth in the hopes of using the planet to safely repopulate. The overriding question becomes whether these three groups can reconcile on Earth without killing each other first. . . .
