Follow on Google News | New Short Story Collection "Fragments of Elsewhere" Explores Love, Loss, and the Search for homeBy: John Derossett Puiblishing Set against the evocative backdrops of distant cities, small-town diners, and restless hearts, Fragments of Elsewhere offers readers a poignant journey through love, loss, and self-discovery. Each story presents a glimpse into the lives of ordinary people navigating the complexities of life—some in search of a place to call home, others finding meaning in the arms of a stranger. From a sailor finding solace in a foreign port, to a young woman reconnecting with an estranged parent over a cup of coffee, to an unexpected romance igniting under a starlit sky, the stories in Fragments of Elsewhere resonate with raw emotion and universal truths. The collection reminds us that love and belonging often emerge from the most unexpected places and that the fragments of our past remain with us, shaping who we become. "This collection was born from a desire to explore the quiet yet profound moments that make up our lives," says John DeRossett, author of the book. "These stories reflect the beauty and heartache of human connection, and I hope readers find pieces of themselves within the pages." Poignant, bittersweet, and deeply introspective, Fragments of Elsewhere is perfect for readers who enjoy emotionally resonant fiction that lingers long after the last page. Whether reflecting on places they've been or the people they've loved, readers will find themselves captivated by the tender and universal themes within each story. Fragments of Elsewhere is available in paperback, hard cover and eBook formats.
