{"product_id":"closure-contemporary-black-british-short-stories-9781845232887","title":"Closure: Contemporary Black British Short Stories","description":"From well-known and award-winning authors including Bernardine Evaristo, Fred D Aguiar, and Leone Ross to previous unpublished writers, this ambitious and intriguing anthology of short stories showcases each author s most challenging work. These works from writers who are happy to describe themselves as Black British, have a rich variety of styles, forms, and themes, from raw realism, the erotic, and elegant economy, to the fanciful, humorous, and the tender. The contributors to Closure display a keen awareness of the short story form in all its contemporary possibilities as a way of telling and finding a form for the writer s vision. These are stories about the ways in which we do and do not love, unrequited yearnings, the quiet and often hidden violence in our lives, moments of epiphany, and the precious occasions of jubilation and uplift.\u003cbr\u003e\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-3321863\"\u003eJacob Ross\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Peepal Tree Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/01\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 212\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.30w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781845232887\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1845232887\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-FIC\"\u003eFiction\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-FIC003000\"\u003eAnthologies (multiple authors)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-FIC\"\u003eFiction\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-FIC051000\"\u003eCultural Heritage\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJacob Ross is an associate editor at Peepal Tree Press and at \"SABLE LitMag.\" He is the author of two acclaimed short story collections, \"Song for Simone\" and \"A Way to Catch the \"\"Dust\" and the novel \"Pynter Bender,\" which was shortlisted for the Commonwealth Writer s Prize and was named book of the year by \"Caribbean Review of Books.\"\u003cbr\u003e\"\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Peepal Tree Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42657320501485,"sku":"9781845232887","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_83b1da30-5eb0-4944-97d0-aa5b42ad0b72.jpg?v=1649310362","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/closure-contemporary-black-british-short-stories-9781845232887","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
