The Trees Grew Because I Bled There is a beautiful short story collection by Eric LaRocca. Although it wasn’t my favourite of his works, I really enjoyed it. My favourite stories were ‘You’re Not Supposed To Be Here’ & ‘ The Flames Burned As Emerald As Grass’. I didn’t particularly enjoy the final story, as it was very odd, but other than that I really enjoyed this!
