Five short stories and five poems from internationally published author Alex Burrett.
For Alex Burrett, 2015 was both literally and metaphorically, "The year my tears failed". Literally – in that he was diagnosed with a medical condition that is treated with artificial tears. His own tears are incapable of properly lubricating his eyeballs. Metaphorically – in that the literary shrieks of pain this collection fell on deaf ears. Each was entered into a completion. Not one won. Or was shortlisted.
Is this the worst introduction to a year’s work ever written? Burrett hopes so. Because that will mean he has won a prize… of sorts. Anyway. He's proud of these short stories and poems. They explore big ideas. This collection is ideal for someone who likes big picture thinking. And words.
