- Summary:
- The Stories in this Collection are unifed by a sense of dislocation. In each of these exquisite pieces, an underlying element of disturbance and disharmony threads its way through the narrative, while the characters struggle to navigate conscious choices and come to terms with new realities. Their voices are driven by perspective that views the complexity of life journeys as a manifestation of intentional decisions, circumstances beyond ones control, and the need to reflect upon the combination of both in order to become fully realized.
