Opis

Five Hundred Words For Snow is a collection of both prize-winning and unpublished short stories by the author Ceri A Lowe, charting the journey through childhood to becoming an adult. It is about about the half-truths and lies we tell ourselves and each other every day. Set in an eclectic range of locations from Neath through New Orleans and beyond, each story focuses on a different element of the emotions we experience through childhood and the profound impact tiny events can have upon us as adults. With influences from Poland, Lithuania and the USA amongst others, each story illustrates how our own journeys can be unravelled in a lightening flash - through one white lie or a misunderstanding and change the course of a lifetime, for ever. Covering themes that span abandonment, childhood death, guilt, love, 911, ASD, betrayal and the intrinsic nature of human hope, each story is carefully crafted to question the fabric of how we live and how we view and judge those around us. Poignant, thoughtful and provocative, Five Hundred Words For Snow will touch your heart and penetrate your soul.
