Louise Dunn

Like Snow Falling In Summer: a collection of short stories Louise Dunn

The stories in this book explore the unpredictable territory of human experience with nuance and insight. Each tale is a separate gust of wind in a storm of shifting perspectives, distorted reflections and surprising destinations. Parallel Lines emits ghostly chills without veering from the contemporary flavour of the prose; Lifeline explores the fortunes of an empty palm; mundanity coexists with schadenfreude in Green Apples; moral ambiguity changes colour in Tea and Shortbread; and death, disappointment and discovery trickle through the entirety of this eclectic collection as quietly and purposefully as melting snow. Compelling, quirky and flawlessly written, Louise Dunn's memorable characters will take you from romance to revenge, from murder to mistaken identity, as you peer through the keyholes at their ink-frozen lives.
