Beautifully subtle ... A bit busy ... Brimming with human frailty, vulnerability, and the delicious pain of living and carrying on after loved ones have left us behind.
A collection that captures the zeitgeist of today, without being expressly 'contemporary' ...
I, for one, could listen to Bordas’s characters talking and thinking all day. One Sun Only is a truly effortless collection.
Barthelme, Carver and Englander are masters of the short form, each in his own manner. All seek deeply to understand what it means to be human, however disturbing, unpleasant and ridiculous. The same goes for Camille Bordas.
