Produktbeschreibung
Josephine Lay's short stories focus on the human condition. This collection is all about people, their relationships and how they cope with loneliness and loss. Some of her stories are light and amusing, some darker and sadder, and some are frankly strange. They were written over a period of ten years, yet all have a thread that strings them together; a slim strand of colour… The many tones of Saffron. The Short Story has, in the past, been less fashionable than the Novel, but it is gaining popularity in this frenetic, modern world, where people have less and less time to read. As Silas Marne says, 'The world has accelerated; people, no longer have the time to read pages and pages of literary eloquence.' Josephine Lay's stories will haunt you long after you have put down her book. ~ Silas Marne
