Description

"Under the shade of the feijoa trees" offers a representative sample of Hayley Ann Solomon's particular brand of high quality, emotionally resonant short stories. The styles and intensities vary extensively, but the common denominator is humanity in all its complexity, woven with philosophy.""This eclectic and very personal collection of short stories by successful writer of genre fiction and emerging poet, Hayley Ann Solomon, describes in lyrical detail widely dispersed places and situations. The stories are well-constructed and intensely-felt and the author's joy in the sounds and sequencing of beautiful words is evident."-Philip Chatting, Winner of the Proverse Prize 2014, author of "The Snow Bridge and Other Stories" (Proverse, 2015).
