Since July 2010, TNBBC has been bringing authors and readers together every month to get behind the book! This unique experience wouldn't be possible without the generous donations of the authors and publishers involved.
It's the first of the month and you know what that means.
It's time to bring you May's Author/Reader Discussion Book!
We will be reading and discussing From Here
with Jen Michalski
Jen and her publisher Aqueous Books have generously made 10 copies of the book available:
5 ebooks (PDF, epub, and mobi - open internationally) and
5 print (for US only)
Here's a little bit about the book:
Fiction. The twelve stories in FROM HERE explore the dislocations and intersections of people searching, running away, staying put. Their physical and emotional landscapes run the gamut, but in the end, they're all searching for a place to call home.
"From the Chechnyian girl sucked into the drug world, the alcoholic professor who uses his daughter to dodge a rap, from hippie graffiti to the “wet clicking of a bird-like heart,” Jen Michalski writes down the beast, and you remember. Strong sentiment, strong stories." - Terese Svoboda, Author of Tin God
"Jen Michalski’s characters seem to breathe through the pages of this emotionally expansive collection. Each story is a world in which the reader to linger—not to seek refuge but to gain insight, and perhaps, to find a kindred soul." - Dawn Raffel, author of the Year of Long Division
"This is short fiction at its moody, character-driven best. The people you meet are so vivid and so sympathetic that their joys and sorrows will quickly become your own. I haven’t decided which is my favorite story, but I know my favorite line. “Good luck with your broken things.” Fantastic." - Matthew Norman, author of Domestic Violets
