Winter of Different Directions

by Steven J. McDermott

Winter of Different Directions Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

The characters in Steven J. McDermott's short story collection Winter of Different Directions struggle to keep life's body blows and uppercuts from becoming knockout punches, whether they bring them on themselves, or receive them from friends, lovers, co-workers, or family. You might root for them. You might root against them. But just like the relatives you hope won't show for Thanksgiving, these are characters you can't forget. With his stunning range and passionate delivery, it is McDermott who lands the knockout punch in this debut short story collection.
