Om Where we are going to next
When you turn a kaleidoscope, the picture before your eye reinvents itself over and over. Reading these excellent stories by Amy Foster Myer is akin to that. Sadness, joy, bliss, pain, hope, dread, delight: with each turn of the page, Foster Myer reinvents the world.
-Evan Morgan Williams
Amy Foster-Myer's Where We are Going to Next is aptly titled: every story here lives on the edge, always on the fringes of the world, looking in, even in the most intimate relationships. And when each story ends, it ends just before you think it will, not showing us where characters have arrived but hinting at directions they might take. This is a book full of horizons, whales and dragons rimming the unknown edges of the map.
-Samuel Snoek-Brown
In eleven concise, perfectly observed stories, Amy Foster-Myer offers intimate meditations on spouses and neighbors, parents and children, love and grief. Where Are We Going to Next gracefully explores the tension between our desire for connection and our fundamental solitude, and illuminates small, seemingly familiar moments of domestic life in all their grand mystery and strangeness.
-Emily Chenoweth
