THE RAGE is a collection of separate stories that all end in an average person getting so angry at someone that they resort to murder. I wanted to show that even normal people can be pushed, by various reasons or circumstances, past their normal rational judgement and commit actions that they normally would not do. For example, some people go crazy after losing a job while others go crazy for having their partner cheat on them. Some go crazy for even smaller things. Each story has characters briefly meeting or seeing a someone that happens to be a main character in the following story. Therefore, although all of the stories are different, they are connected only by these brief interactions.
