A Question of Blood

0/5 ( ratings)

A fourth-generation farmer with no one to inherit his farms, a daughter concerned about her aged father going to Antarctica; college kids pumping gas; a clash of cultures in Turkey; an office cleaner who discovers something unethical in a file... These situations, and others the characters in Karen Phillips' stories find themselves in, are familiar to us all. The ways they come to terms with them are explored with empathy and an understanding of human nature.
Karen Phillips began writing in 2009, winning the BNZ Katherine Mansfield Novice Award that year. Since then her short stories have achieved success in other competitions and have been published in Takahe and Flash Frontier. She lives on a hill overlooking the beach at Ahipara with her husband, two cats, twenty olive trees and sometimes a big, black Labrador dog. This is her first collection of stories.
