From Midwest Book Review:
“Of Dust and Tides is a short story collection about new adults just entering the adult world, and provides a range of characters and visions about how this world changes and challenges its new arrivals.
Take eighteen-year-old Dorrie who sets off on a mission to find a long-absent father, Ollie, and discovers the meaning of rock gods, accidents of birth, and blood ties…For a different perspective, turn to Portrait of Jori, in which an art student’s life is changed by the man he becomes involved with…Another powerful winner is Impure Earth, where the world is unprepared for a challenge to the status quo…
Each very different tale presents stories of survival, confrontation and change; and each follows characters that grow from their encounters.” D. Donovan, Senior Reviewer, Midwest Book Review
