Torrents of Our Time

Angebote / Angebote:

A gifted storyteller with a wide-ranging audience, Christian Fennell challenges the weakness in the heart of all our "truths, " while illuminating our dreams and our fears. These are stories that reside in the broken places of us, a stunning dance between our flaws and the beauty and joy of who we are. Taken as a whole, Torrents of Our Time is a lyrical and page-turning narrative of love, loss, and pain. Whatever expectations one might have of a book of dark, realist short stories set in rural America, this collection defies them, and instead weaves an elegant song of sadness, dark humour, and strangeness." - Neon Books UK "Many of Fennell's stories, which employ different narrative techniques, create effective tension and suspense." - Kirkus Reviews "This book is simply Douglas Adams but written for small-town America. This is a Hitchhiker's Guide to small-town America."- Book Heaven ¿"Christian Fennell writes stories to savour. Sharp, salty and sly, they come at you sideways with a shot of poignancy when you least expect it - and a twist of humour when you most need it." - Katy Darby, Director, Liars' League London
