Irregular Stories, by The Irregular Writers Collective: #BookReview.

On By stuartakenIn Author, Book, Creative Writer, Fiction, opinion, Reading, Review

12 short stories, varying in topic, treatment and length. Here you’ll find the surreal, the complex, the bizarre, and the simply unclassifiable. And that, I imagine, is the intention.

These stories are definitely not ‘regular’ and refuse to be placed into pre-defined boxes.
There is a literary element here, but you’ll also find some playfulness. Some will tax your mind, some will possibly confuse, and some confound until the final sentence reveals all.

I read this collection under the sun, by the pool, on a holiday in Crete. Enjoyed the variety in tone and mood, and the many different characters I encountered.
 
There’s a note on the back cover, ‘Get ready for an exciting journey with the Irregulars…’, which I think accurately sums up the anthology. Enjoy!

    1. Thanks, Lynette. Actually, Crete was a little less sunny than we’d anticipated. In fact, we had a cool breeze much of the time and torrential rain leading to flooding and cars washed off the roads into the sea! But, as always, we made the best of it. Lot’s of walks and some good food!

        1. I also took a good number of photos, some including a flock of wild goats we met on a hill walk. It wasn’t all bad, of course. We did see the sun from time to time, but definitely not basking on the sunbed or cooling off in the pool time!
