Old porn shops now buy and sell memories. Ned buys, by mistake, his own memories. But somehow they’re not quite right. Robert Morgan finds himself suddenly, and without any reason, famous for his alternate-universe theory. He meets Ruth Collins, who has her own universe. An old man is waiting to be taken to a hospice. His TV shows clips from his life, including how he, not Lee Harvey Oswald, killed John Kennedy. He unplugs it but it won’t shut off. Passengers on a flight relive an old John Wayne movie where the plane survives, but there is a deleted scene with a different ending. Here are people like you, caught up in events where the world they know crumbles. Some of these stories could happen, even if unlikely; others take place only in the improbable world of the mind. Welcome to the left hand of the world, where things aren’t the way they seem. Fragments of the Future contains these stories, and more.
