Pushcart Prize-nominated author Kristen Zory King's debut short fiction collection is comprised of 18 vignettes that convey the experiences of a tapestry of lives crafted from small, poetic moments.

"A remarkable collection of short fiction-thoughtful, playful, exuberantly alive, formally inventive, and often quietly daring in its stylistic approach. Through the accumulation of wonderful character-based vignettes, we experience a tapestry of lives crafted from small, poetic moments: a strand of hair dipped in ice cream, the hum of music through a car, a sunset on the belly of a cat-Reminiscent of the stories of Lydia Davis and Grace Paley, writers who have also conjured such magic and beauty from the everyday." - David Byron Queen, Word West Press
