Silence, and other stories

A collection of short stories set in small-town New England, these tales observe domestic life and the inner lives of women, tracing quiet tensions, moral dilemmas, and moments of suspense. Rich in local detail and plainspoken dialogue, the stories range from eerie, psychologically charged narratives to gentle sketches of household routine, often revealing how superstition, social expectation, and personal longing shape choices. Character-focused and atmospheric, the pieces privilege small events and interior perception as catalysts for revelation and consequence.
