Blue Christmas: Holiday Stories for the Rest of Us

Overview

Blue Christmas: Holiday Stories for the Rest of Us, is an anthology of seventeen holiday short stories by acclaimed fiction writers. Not one relies on borrowed feelings or seasonal stereotypes, and none engage in the grand yuletide conspiracy of mirth and good cheer. Yes, it's a wonderful life...for some of the people, some of the time. But fiction that tells the truth is never about the merry citizens of Blissville or Bedford Falls. And during the incessant holiday festivities, our own chronic troubles are acutely magnified; our losses are more keenly felt. These Blue Christmas stories are not the palliative escape from reality that we've come to expect from our saccharine Christmas narratives, but are, in fact, plunges into an oftentimes distressing reality. They offer you the gifts of honesty, suspense, and transport. They'll carry you away to a world more intriguing and compelling than the one you spend your days in.
