About the Book
Dim Mirrors is a collection of 39 flash fiction stories that open windows into secondary worlds of fantasy and
nightmare. Interwoven with images from mythology and folklore are the themes of
love, loss, and memory. The comical “Not According to Plan” leads to more serious
and introspective works like “Blue Ribbons” and “The Destroyer of Worlds”,
while mythology and folkloric elements come together in stories like “The Souls
of Trees” and “Ariadne’s Freedom”.
