Sketches for the Politically Incorrect

About the Book

Ramiz Alkhishin is a grocer. He has a passion for a life that is as independent as possible from its surroundings. You may have met him before in his earlier books: Fortune Cookies; Sketches; The Bazaar; The Balcony; The Lobby; and The Tango of Gossip. Ramiz has noticed that when any of his grocery shop customers faces a fluke incident in life, a question that they always ask is: Why Me? To Ramiz, the simple answer is: �It is never you in particular. It is just that an event occurs in your presence; how you and others react to this event creates realities out of a multi-universe of possibilities� In his newest book, Why Me, author Raad Chalabi, through his alter ego Ramiz Alkhishin, explores this idea through ten short plays. Each play demonstrates that the consequences of any unexpected incident is determined, not by the incident itself, but by how the characters involved reacted to it.
