Description
'of salt, dust & love' is a collection of twelve short stories by Stephen Symons.
The melancholy of loss—past, present or anticipated—of time passing, life lived, and the futility of war weave through these short stories. Subtly crossing genres (military fiction, science fiction, historiographic metafiction, romance) and intertwining the poetic in the prose, narrative resolutions are left open to further
interpretation and imagining, provoking a re-reading of the stories.
