15. Love, Loss, Found

Author Tanisha Alston captures the literal (and sometimes not so literal) varying ranges of emotion of the title in this collection of eight short stories.

Bringing to life rich characters experiencing various degrees of love, loss, and being found, Love, Loss, Found weaves together stories that take the reader on an emotional journey. Characters shine and envelop the reader in stories that highlight the discovery and loss of love, the mourning of old lives left behind, revelations of new lives to be found, and enduring the delicate, difficult layers of grief.

Tanisha's work has appeared in the Philadelphia Inquirer, Philadelphia City Paper, and featured on Allhiphop.com and HipHopDx.com. She lives in the Philadelphia area; this is her first short story collection.
