| Lovers & Strangers, a collection of thirteen stories, rockets through the complexities of love,
internal struggle, and human relationships with a sense of wound and wonder.
The title story explores the deepness of what love truly is. Throughout these looks at love, the narrative
voice combines sharp, scenic detail with summary density. The tone is reminiscent of Sherwood Anderson and
Bernard Malamud.
Tracey’s characters are authentic, quirky, loving, innocent, and bound to truth by the universal desire to
understand what makes us human, what it means to love, and be loved.
Lovers & Strangers is also available as an ebook on Amazon.com for the Kindle.
Grant Tracey is also the author of Parallel Lines and the Hockey Universe and Playing Mac: a novella
in two acts. |
