Sam's Dot Publishing actually came out with this anthology last year, but it took me a while to be able to get a copy. I just fell in love with the title and the cover. So, I finally picked up a copy and had a chance to read it recently and it was a lot of fun.
The stories in this anthology are supposed to be "outre" tales, similar to something you might watch on Twilight Zone or Outer Limits back when they were in black and white. Because of the title and the cover, I was hoping for a packet of stories where a purse (or a handbag - as we all know that one purses one's lips, one carries a handbag) was a central part of the story. As it is, in most of the stories, the "purse" in question is simply a prop, used early in the story and then forgotten; but that's okay, for the most part. The tales are funny, witty, bizarre, action packed and definitely able to take you out of this world and into another.

Definitely an interesting title.
Yeah. It stuck in my head long enough to remember to get a copy. Good title, that.
