There Is No Long Distance Now
Naomi Shihab Nye
In these forty life-altering, life-affirming, and extremely short short stories, the award-winning poet Naomi Shihab Nye proposes that no matter how great the divide between friends, siblings, life and death, classmates, enemies, happiness and misery, war and peace, breakfast and lunch, parent and child, country and city, there is, in fact, no long distance. Not anymore.

Naomi Shihab Nye's There Is No Long Distance Now is a collection of forty short stories that explore the interconnectedness of humanity.  In brief tales about various facets of life, she conveys that every person on the planet shares a commonality - whether it be language, religion, family, hardship, or hunger.  In fact, everyone worries and changes over time.
