In Memory of Lizzie Breed and Other Stories

American author Jane Dossick extends her mastery of the short-story format in a wide range of stories that features her finest and most mature work to date.


In Memory of Lizzie Breed and Other Stories, the stories are full and rounded, sad but often tinged with humor and empathy.


Subtly written (without flourishes) each story is a muted dramatic study that demonstrates the range and craftsmanship of an author who has mastered the psychology of people both young and old.


Her eye for detail and command of family dynamics distinguish this uncommonly rich collection ideal for anyone who appreciates the finely turned tale.



JANE DOSSICK is the author of numerous books, including Creative Therapy I-IV, Inheritance, the children's story Izzy and Osgood, and the plays Gemma, Aftermath, and Bleecker St. Blues.
