Description: Ryan Turner's short stories interrogate the nature of human relationships--between parents and children, siblings, lovers, coworkers, captive and jailer. Setting his characters--their anxieties, triumphs, deceptions, and vulnerabilities--against the backdrop of everyday life, he writes in prose that exhibits complexity without sacrificing the pleasures of narrative. Turner's uninhibited curiosity fosters a willingness to imagine the discomfort and uncertainty of others, sparking insights into the mechanisms of intimacy and loneliness.
