THE COLLECTORS Stories

Ten distinguished writers contributed to this anthology of short stories with a theme of collections. The stories are as varied as the nine narrators who deliver them, but all have a dark tone. In two surrealist stories featuring Latine women trapped in bleak situations, Frankie Corzo narrates with an edgy tone of underlying power. Becca Q. Co helps listeners navigate a unique story that is written as stage directions. Alex McKenna narrates A.S. King's story in a gritty voice that matches its mood. Vas Eli is outstanding in "Sweet Everlasting," expressing the complete disdain of a demon who gives people what they THINK they want and then collects their sweet moments for all eternity. The dedication and introduction are delivered by editor A.S. King. L.T. © AudioFile 2023, Portland, Maine [Published: OCTOBER 2023]
