註釋The short fiction of Susan Knier spans generations and time periods, ranging from the drama of human life to the unexplained on the outer fringes of reality. In “Leaving,” two children face a dangerous dilemma when their fugitive father is seriously injured in a remote wilderness camp. A woman struggles to adapt to 21st century life after many years in a cloistered monastery in “Matins And Lauds.” A mysterious young man protects the grand destiny of an impoverished but brilliant classmate in “Saving Grace.” In “Under A Butterscotch Sky,” a woman and her terminally ill daughter immerse themselves in coverage of the first manned mission to Mars, their isolation paralleling that of the astronauts. This collection of short fiction is accompanied by poetry and selected dream accounts of the author.
