Titles by Jim Hinks
Brace - A New Generation In Short Fiction
Brace - the latest in Comma Press' acclaimed series of anthologies featuring the best of the UK's emerging short story writers.
...Organ-playing wunderkinds, poets on government re-employment schemes, unlikely celebrity party guests...
While these stories take in a vast array of subjects and styles, they have one thing in common: they demand our participation, urging us to fill in the blanks, the spaces between the words. Whether it's a concealed motivation, a mysterious confederation of the familiar and the far-fetched, or an image with the eloquence to convey what a character could never articulate, it's their very reticence that makes them so compelling.
Featuring: Charlotte Allan, Juliet Bates, Annie Clarkson, Adam Connors, Steve Dearden, Paul de Havilland, Tyler Keevil, Richard Knight, Jacqueline McCarrick, Neil McQuillian, Heather Richardson, David Rose, Guy Russell, Guy Ware.
