Customer Reviews

moving short stories that are gracefully written

I'm not usually an avid reader of the short story format. I generally find that I'm not satisfied with the character and plot development that happens in such a brief space of words, despite a more condensed writing style and other techniques adopted by authors. In this collection of stories, however, Marly Swick has managed to write in a simple and straightforward, but convincing manner about people facing their own personal troubles.
