An anthology navigating how we love.
Featuring stories by Chris Witter, Annie Clarkson, Amy Prodromou, Naomi Kruger and Emma Bragg.
"The difficulty and fragility of our relationships with those we love – this is the theme that preoccupies the five writers collected here. Between them they explore, in their very different ways, the precarious tension inherent in the intimate connections with others which, as humans, we all crave. It’s no surprise, of course, that this fascination with personal relationships recurs so often in the realm of the short story – of all literary forms it’s perhaps the most perfectly suited to capturing the turning points, the moments of illumination and of blindness, that determine whether a relationship will live or die". ~ Carys Davies
