Life, Death And Other Distractions eBook

''Life, Death and Other Distractions is a masterclass for the writing of short stories. They are wry and witty, comical-tragical and tragical-comical, funny and poignant, and above all wonderfully short. They are little pleasure pills.'' - Marion Halligan

''With deft shifts in mood, place, time and genre, Rodgers establishes himself as a skilful storyteller. The gamut of human experience is here, acutely observed and offered with poignant reflection, whimsy, a deliciously wry streak and, at times, suspense and shock. Rodgers cloaks wisdoms in allegory, moments of profound understanding in humour and entertains with an eclectic cast of characters.'' - Felicity Volk, award-winning author of Desire Lines and Lightning
