Shortlisted for the 2010 Danuta
Gleed Award for Short
Fiction!
Crisp confronts the unspeakable parts of memory, meditating on characters caught in isolation and struggling to make sense of grief, disappointment, and the occasional dinner party gone wrong. Along the way, these characters don't always make sound decisions: a grieving widow pursues a priest, an unhappy wife whittles her husband to bits, and a melancholic man has a one-night stand with a whale trainer. In his debut short story collection R.W. Gray uncovers human reactions to loneliness and unrest through tales about relationships, secrets, and a longing to connect.
