Description
David and Laurence fall into a sudden and deep friendship at summer camp. But when Laurence suggests a trip to the ominous Rock one night, everything changes.
The thirteen stories in Andrew Pyper’s intense and artful short-story collection, Kiss Me, deal with the issues, sensibilities and intangible estrangements of contemporary youth. But there are no neat and tidy coming-of-age passages here: these are narratives about reaching out—and often failing to touch—one another in a time of both privilege and fracture.
