Abstract
The Igloo is a collection of stories about shifts of awareness--cracks in the façades of life--that cause the main character in each story to experience a more essential level of his or her nature, the existence of which has heretofore been unsuspected by that character. The responses to this experience are as varied as are the natures of the characters, ranging from a paralysis at the realignment of the sense of personal identity to the determination to maintain the link--keep the crack open- between this deeper level of being and the surfaces of existence.
