Megan Giselle Smith

Tributaries Megan Giselle Smith

In this debut novella-in-short-stories, new author Megan Giselle Smith explores the ways grief is universal, and the ways it is all too individual. The death of thirteen-year-old Elliot Perdue takes its toll on friends and family alike. While some (like older sister Emmy) process and recover from the loss, others (like best friend Adrianna) find themselves trapped in their trauma. As time goes on, relationships are destroyed, faith is lost and found again, and ghostly memories are never far beneath the surface. Poignant, thoughtful, emotional, and funny, these seven short stories span twenty years with the Perdue family you won't want to miss.
