‘Controlled, poetically laconic prose . . . a perfect distillation of the ways that grief seems unfathomably large and mysterious.’—Lev Raphael, author of Rosedale in Love
‘Armstrong’s characters are . . . elevated to the heights of tragedy through careful attention to detail and voice.’—Las Vegas Weekly
These stories occupy the space between dark realities and the fantastic leaps of faith people make to survive. Connecting them is the journey: people searching for solace, insight, purpose; gathering up their lives into discernible pieces of fact and conviction, hoping to get it right.
David Armstrong had received many awards for his stories, which have been widely published in literary journals. He is fiction editor of Witness Magazine and a recipient of the Black Mountain Institute Fellowship.
