You Are Here (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781771963411)

Gathering the best twenty stories from Cynthia Flood's career, these spare, stylistically inventive stories explore subjects ranging from the domestic to the political.

In this collection, Flood navigates a wide range of subject matter with a writing style which gradually becomes more intense, tighter, and sometimes experimental with each story. Most themes are familiar--love, hate, children, the natural world, parents, failure, despair, anger, regret. Other stories are more unusual, dealing with topics such as far-left political activity. Containing what may be some of Flood's most poignant work, You Are Here is a sharp and engaging exploration of the world today.
