VEGAN RULES
A Novel
Andie is a vegan, a scuba diver, a girl with big dreams... and an even bigger dilemma...
All the flatfishes begin life with an eye on each side of their heads. But during their change from juveniles to adults, one eye migrates from its original side to the other, both eyes eventually winding up on the same side. It must be crazy for those juveniles when the action starts, their perspectives shifting every single day. Just when they must think they know what's true about the world, it all changes. I want to tell them, "don't worry--when that other eye arrives on its permanent side, everything will make sense again." But who am I to say?
