Soph and Other Short Stories

A grave keeper who awaits his own passing, a high school prodigy who's at the end of his wits, a desperate wife with an anger issue, and a young boy who's in love with a sex worker - Soph and Other Short Stories is a short story collection that goes over themes of emptiness, depression, angst, and regret. It's an extremely short read, yet it encompasses all the shallow sentiments life has offered the author. It's a glimpse into the true nature of human beings, and a message that even though things appear perfect from the outside, the truth is often bleak and colourless.
