Every year the Vegas Valley Book Festival produces a communal book. Previous festivals have created a progressive novel by seven authors and a collection of short stories inspired by classic Las Vegas photographs. This year's tome is a series of reflections on the state state of our community besieged by foreclosures, unemployment and other kinds of decay.
