Georgia McAlpine recommends Maria Grigorescu - Author . Oct 18 - These short stories take you on a journey around the world and through so many time periods. Although many of the stories seem unrelatable on the surface, a sense of familiarity was provoked through each of the stories, a willingness to fit in and to find meaning both in our lives and in the weird and wonderful world that surrounds us - something which I think everyone can relate to. Some stories finish seemingly unresolved, yet this only contributes to the feeling of not fully understanding our environment and the people in it. It draws you to the next story, hoping that you'll find an answer there. The stories of Romania are eye-opening, while the fantasy stories are intriguing. There is something for everyone in this collection, particularly those who are feeling a little lost. *** Feelings in Staccato is a collection of stories inspired by imagination, dreams, hopes and life. A student trekking the mountains encounters the supernatural in objects of an ethnographical interest... A school playground loses its innocence when tarred by a gruesome discovery... A prisoner of war lives to tell the tale... A journal of an immigrant, and what it means to accept new ways in a new country... ...and many more tales. From Transylvania to Australia, from ancient Dacia to Perth, from Romans to math teachers, from rigged elections to counting cigarettes, from school during communism to murders, from 44 BC to 2021, this is a collection that will take the reader on a journey that spans across all ages and is sure to delight at every page turn.
