Bravo to Katherine Shonk--The Red Passport is a welcome and rare showcase for the classic craft of the American short story.Katherine's characters (sometimes bursting with youth and other times exhausted from life's trials) are both unique and universal.She shares an understanding of human experience and modern-day Russian that, along with her wonderful ear for language and eye for surroundings, draws her characters to life on the page.Her style is clear and captivating, each metaphor a little miracle.I look forward to more from this outstanding American author.Click Here to see more reviews about: The Red Passport: Stories (Hardcover)
