Somersault: An INGLY Writers Prose & Poetry Anthology Volume 1

by Ingly Writers, Laura Bottaro Costner (Editor)

Overview

Nostalgic, Touching, Uplifting, Funny. Tales of the human drama—childhood challenges, chance encounters, cultural collisions, human frailty. The changing contexts will take you to a side street in India, a beach boardwalk, a nursing home and a Planned Parenthood waiting room. You will glimpse Wall Street and Jim Crow country; run in chase of a butterfly; converse with a feathered friend. You will weave through roles and relationships where tensions rise and fall. What you are left with is the human connection that storytelling offers.
