In this debut print collection, Australian author Diana Jane Heath introduces readers to vivid and fully imagined characters who capture hearts and minds as they delight and challenge.
Each of the short stories in Tales for the Sisterhood feature female protagonists encountering the human struggles of unrequited love, searching for one's true identity, and abandonment, as well as the pain of bullying and even the horror of human trafficking.
Drawn from Diana Jane Heath's vivid imagination-apart from "Just in the Nick of Time," which is based partly on actual events-the varied narratives in this collection are united by their collective ability to inspire and empower women facing the myriad challenges of modern life.
Peppered with surprise plot twists, unexpected endings, and important truths about the reality of social injustice in the world, Tales for the Sisterhood is not for the faint of heart. Graphic scenes and mature themes help illuminate difficult issues and raise awareness about some of the challenges and dangers faced by women around the world.
Even so, this book should not be missed. It's a dazzling collection of stories about women, for women, and written by a woman of great skill and understanding.
