In a Mist
Description
In a Mist explores longing, loss and isolation. This debut
collection of short stories examines the lives of socially isolated
individuals with obsessive interests and desires. These lonely
protagonists find solace in emotionally evocative forms of cultural
expression such as early jazz, classic cinema and renaissance motets.
The transcendent potential of music is a recurring theme of this
collection.
