Daisy Chain

by Elspeth Duncan

In this remarkable collection of vignettes, Elspeth Duncan spins tales that draw the reader into the creative process. She gives us characters who are at once familiar and yet strangely unfamiliar, whetting our curiosity just enough that we find ourselves imagining endings for her tales, creating stories for the characters that tell as much about them as about ourselves. This is the genius of Daisy Chain. After one story, the reader is hooked. It’s an exhilarating ride to self knowledge though the stream of consciousness of fictive characters.

Stream of consciousness. Daydreams captured in a collection of short stories. The stories at the back become linked to each other.
