Paris of the Pacific Northwest will appeal to a wide range of readers, especially those who enjoy the short story genre. This collection of eleven stories and a play are quick and clever reads. Collectively, the works are bound by themes of the extra ordinary. The writing delivers on a broad range of suspects including, the paranormal, psychological instability, sexuality, and fantasy. Unforeseen twists and turns and unanticipated endings ensure the tales are fresh in an unconventional way. Each story is seeded with a beautiful mastery of imagery. The contrast between the unusual internal life of most of the characters, and their often sedate surroundings helps to create this extraordinary theme and sets a certain edginess in the stories. The inability to deduce what might happen and the consistent out-of-the-ordinary perspective will attract those who enjoy a novel reading experience. The short story format works well here for the content and offers the reader the benefit of a sudden resolution, often a resolution that is quite a surprise, which is a delightful turn of events. Those who enjoy unexpected twists or refreshing takes on some classic themes will not be disappointed. |
