Treats fiction debut bristles with sudden surprises and sharp splinters. Her stories become tiny slivers of disturbing lives that wedge in the readers mind.
Jessica Treats debut collection of short-short stories bristles with sudden surprises and sharp splinters. Although each story is short enough to be read in a few moments time, they wedge in the readers mind, and the questions and emotions they raise arent quickly forgotten. Like urban fables or fairy tales, Treats stories are tightly woven and layered with meaning. She winds the same intriguing theme throughout her collection: that happy endings are hard to come by in a world full of mistrust, confusion, and fear. This collection is part of the Coffee-To-Go Short-Short Stories Series.
