Short Happy Stories
Evan Pellervo, author
"Short Happy Stories" is comprised of fifty compact stories that hopefully function as a respite from troubling times. Inspired by Tolstoy, Salinger, and Lydia Davis, these stories try to make the most of the present. This is an eclectic collection with an overarching theme: gratitude. Since most of the stories can be read in a few minutes, they are good for a day's in-between moments.
