Waves: Stories ☑️ Recommended Book

Excerpt from Waves

Rose went to the living room and stopped in front of the easel. She didn't know if the shapes on the canvas were waves, or trees. Vague almost threatening blue and grey-green forms overwhelmed the small square space. They spilled into each other and over the edges. She couldn't figure them out. When she returned to the kitchen, she said. "Your pictures, your paintings I mean, they tell me stories. But I'm not sure about that one."

Diane Girard writes short stories, longer fiction, poetry and essays. Her short fiction has appeared in Ten Stories High and the Plum Ruby Review and her essays have been published on Senior Women Web. Her non-fiction, pen-for-hire work focussed on seniors housing issues. She lives in Kitchener, Ontario.

"Threads of empathy and quiet observation run through Diane Girard's stories. In them, we meet men and women who are marginalized, alone, and struggling. Girard explores their lives with kindness, with humour, and always with respect. Waves is a thought-provoking and memorable collection."
