Buried Things
Ten Literary Short Stories
Each human is a story untold. Buried Things is ten of them.
A father who braids the mane of a mare the way he once braided his daughter's hair. A therapist who visits a dementia patient every day. A girl searching an abandoned city for food while trying to protect her younger sister.
Quietly devastating.
Deeply human.
Inside Buried Things
Yesterday he drank it for courage.
Today he drank it for peace.
The pakoras were still warm.
Please don't leave me alone.
I have no one left to make me laugh.
Means somewhere else is burning now.
