About This Book
In this disturbing and powerful, sometimes bitingly funny, short story collection, award-winning author Dorene O'Brien explores the disasters and misadventures that shape or distort lives — among them the plight of a young girl held captive in a remote cabin, an elderly woman bewildered by dementia, a man who takes antidepressants to placate his overly-anxious wife, and more. The title story Ovenbirds won the New Millennium Writings Fiction Prize in 2002 and #12 Dagwood on Rye, the international Bridport Prize in 2004.
