Give Me Your Answer

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

"Give Me Your Answer" is K.D. Miller's second collection of short stories. The book is made up of twelve stories which together trace the evolving life of the protagonist, Daisy Chandler, from childhood to marriage and subsequently to divorce and a deepening religious conviction. First as a painter, then as a writer, Daisy struggles to understand her family, her friends, her lovers and herself. With one foot in the fifties and the other on the millennium, Daisy bears witness to herself and her companions with unflinching honesty and a wickedly irreverent sense of humour. These stories further reveal K.D. Miller's huge talent. Her language is crisp and precise and even the most sombre of the stories is flecked with her trademark wit and humour.
