Little Fortified Stories

Barbara Black | Caitlin Press

From the jury:

Little Fortified Stories, Barbara Black’s award-winning collection of flash fictions, is a beautiful combination of powerful pocket-sized narratives and poetic sensibility. Lyrical and playful, each experience is distilled into a unique microcosmos, rich and colourful, deeply emotional, yet strong as a fortress, protective of the most fragile sensibilities. The author’s originality, subtle humour and gentle poetry are a delight for the reader.
