The Morena

A quietly devastating tale of innocence caught up in civil war, Jonathan Falla's The Morena was shortlisted for the National SHort Story Prize. Other tales here have been widely published and broadcast of BBC Radio, and won a PEN fiction prize.

"Glacial and understated, Falla's prose has an almost mythical quality. Beautifully evocative and utterly engrossing."  Textualities.com
