    Author Finnian Burnett
    “Book Descriptions: Two brothers face their mother’s impending death. A convenience store clerk balances compassion with duty. A grieving soldier receives a package of cookies meant for someone else.

    In this series of connected flash fiction pieces, people navigate the trials of life with tears, arguments and, above all, love and compassion.

    “Lives interwoven and cookies that arrive too late. This bravura collection of linked stories provides a profound lesson in empathy, of pouring yourself into someone else’s life, someone else’s pain, to see it from the inside, looking out.”
    – Will Ferguson, Giller Prize-winning author of 419

    “The brief stories contained here fire like prisms, shining a welcome light into our collective darkness. These linked passages will tear at you, while simultaneously applying empathy and healing. Here find an artfully detailed small town and its lives effortlessly crafted to represent our world entire. We are very lucky to have Burnett.”

    – Michael Blouin, 2x winner of the ReLit Award for Best Novel, Skin House”
