4.0

Rohan's understanding and expression of difficult moments in our lives; frustration, longing, despair and insanity amongst them, make these tales feel grounded, whilst some of the more bizarre accounts offer both deeper insight and a freeing sense that it's all right to let go of inhibitions.

These are stories with beautifully understated character transitions, and adversely the struggle to cope with being stuck. Reading these stories is like glimpsing into profound emotional moments that mirror the ways we all feel at different times.

“I remember how as he spoke everything outside the living room window had looked wrong, as though the world was blurring.”
