Overview
***** "TO BE HONEST, I WAS TOTALLY IN LOVE, INCORRIGIBLY IN LOVE, INDISPUTABLY BEYOND HOPE. ISN'T THAT THE BITCH OF IT." The characters in this collection of short stories have dreams for good lives and loving relationships, but when those dreams are blocked by their own shortcomings or the schemes of others, they find themselves on a path that will ultimately lead to love, heartbreak or death. The Salesman: Hank is determined to right a wrong — and it goes so very, very wrong. The Performer: For Marie Fleuri and Franz Stromeister, it is a case of love at first sound. Swimming: When her grandfather passes away, a young woman swims for her life. The Collector: Natalie is an avid doll collector. What could possibly go wrong? Included are Award Winning Stories: Twins, The Unknown Civilian, The Collector, Daddy's Home, The Saviour PLUS: detailed Authors Notes about the writing process and the stories behind the stories. ***** Reviews of Murder & Other Love Stories: '...there is plenty of the unexpected to be found in these tasty morsels! Hanson provides a smorgasbord of short and micro fiction, each leaving you with something different to chew on. Many of the stories have a deliciously uncomfortable edge, but my favorite is The Performer because of its beautiful prose and endearing romance.' Nannette Kreisman, author of five short story collections ***** '...Bruce Hanson has illuminated the gamut of human experience and emotion: the joy, pain and angst of love, insanity, conflicting values, selflessness, courage, hypocrisy, hope, abuse, and more. His work not only entertains, but raises a mirror to our own selves and the lives we live. Hats off, ladies and gentlemen. This book is a rare achievement in creativity, craft, insight and sensitivity.' Raymond Holmes, author of Witnesses: And Other Short Stories A Barber's Son: Recollections of growing up in 1950's Toronto plus two novels ***** '...what an extraordinary writer you are. Writing short stories is a skill all in itself, and this collection of tales were very well crafted and told so much with a sparseness that was elegant and precise.' Julia Blake, multi-genre author of fifteen novels and a short story collection
