Raw emotions erupt when people reflect upon contemporary social values in conflict with traditional religious values. Often times addressing such controversial subjects is best attempted in the context of fictional stories meant to present to the reader conflicting viewpoints without imposing any viewpoint upon the reader. The six short stories and 32 poems of Horseradish Harvest disguise contemporary controversy with the framework of simple, entertaining fiction. Those readers seeking more than entertainment will find food for thought, which will not cause indigestion or heartburn, within even the most delicate constitutions.The seven chapters of this book present six short stories addressing contemporary social and Christian themes of a controversial nature. The Catholic concept of Free Will is juxtaposed against the Protestant concept of Predestination. The Women's Liberation position in support of a woman's right to abortion is juxtaposed against the Christian assertion to the human Right to Life. The morality, or immorality, of suicide and of homosexuality is presented in the context of a fictional short story for the reader to assess her own opinion. The Right to Privacy and the people's Right to Know stand together in contrast as themes within the short stories with no judgment made or imposed upon the reader. After six chapters of conflicting social themes, the seventh chapter presents 32 poems to assist the readers' intellectual digestion of the subject matter addressed.
