Are You She? (Tindal Street Press Showcases S.) - Tapa blanda

The first of an elegant new "Showcase" series: distinguished guest editors introduce original short story talent. Imaginative, intriguing stories ranging from wintertime in small-town Canada to a family settling in 1960s Nigeria; the strange intensity of a mother-daughter relationship in contemporary Birmingham to the shocked silence of New York in autumn 2001. Four talented short story writers explore themes of anger, love, isolation and change. With author photos by young music scene photographer Mark Johnson.
