Controlled, poetically laconic prose . . . a perfect distillation of the
ways that grief seems unfathomably large and mysterious.--Lev Raphael,
author of Rosedale in Love
Armstrong's characters are . . . elevated to the heights of tragedy
through careful attention to detail and voice.--Las Vegas Weekly
These stories occupy the space between dark realities and the fantastic
leaps of faith people make to survive. Connecting them is the journey:
people searching for solace, insight, purpose; gathering up their lives
into discernible pieces of fact and conviction, hoping to get it right.
David Armstrong had received many awards for his stories, which have
been widely published in literary journals. He is fiction editor of
Witness Magazine and a recipient of the Black Mountain Institute
Fellowship.
