Understatement

By J Bradford

J. Bradford's first outing as a novelist. This short glimpse into random days in the lives of a couple helps shed light on the personality of the author. Emotionally autobiographical, this work of fiction is far-reaching in its specificity, and beautiful in its mundane events. The story weaves through the lives of just two characters, and no major details of these characters is ever known - the reader is not provided with names, ages, genders, or (for the most part) locations. It is for the reader to imagine these characters, yet their facelessness allows their lives to seem real and personal to readers from all walks of life, simply by leaving the gaps and keeping all the delicious tiny, insignificant details that make up a real, living personality. J. Bradford proves with this pocket masterpiece that life is for living, and emotion can mean as much as events.
