Brief Encounters: Ten short stories and a letter... for reading aloud

Brief Encounters is a collection of unique short stories, written specifically for reading aloud.

While this compilation is delightful to read to oneself, its true pleasure lies in reading it aloud to a friend or partner.
The art of writing short stories is exemplified in the collection through the detailing of characters; the way they behave, interact, and react to both the day-to-day and unexpected events that make up their lives. Each characters personality develops in a quick and subtle way to establish storylines that will surprise and intrigue both reader and listener.

Inspired by authors such as Anton Chekhov, Elizabeth Taylor and William Trevor, Edward scrutinises a wide spectrum of experiences and emotions in his stories that whilst unconnected in theme, are united in having an unexpected twist.
