Fissures and Other Stories

4/5 ( ratings)

“Timothy Dodd’s stories, set mostly in West Virginia towns and in the shallow country bordering the deep country of forest and farms, are likely to remind readers of other writers, Breece Pancake and Gurney Norman; but Dodd is his own man. His stories offer surprising new takes, like the sleight of hand at the end of 'Postcards,' a tale about leaving home. From first story to last, Dodd reveals how tentative are the lines between hope and despair, past and present, and life and death. The fissures in these stories are both wounds and means of escape, deftly wrought and lit with a sly humor that doesn’t force itself on anyone.” ~Eddy Pendarvis, author of Ghost Dance Poems

Pages: 156
