From the author of 'The Blue Hour' and 'The Day I Nearly Drowned', 'Bird Wing (and other stories)' is a powerful flash fiction collection exploring love, loss - and revenge.
A young woman struggles to read; an elderly man stares at the sky and contemplates loss; a niece plots murder on the bus. Often tender, sometimes uplifting, and always relatable - these tales explore the emotions and challenges that ordinary people strive to overcome.
Bird Wing contains stories shortlisted and long-listed in competitions, including Flash 500 and Fish Publications.
Praise for The Day I Nearly Drowned:A work of condensed beauty. - Simon Gary
Ultimately, [this] is a collection that touches on very real and human issues - grief, loss, and loneliness in a very modern and transient world... Collins is able to make ordinary struggles emotionally poignant and powerful, reminding us that we all go through more than we think. - MadHatter Reviews
A richly intimate and heartfelt assortment of short stories from an insightful and talented writer. - Gregory Williams
