I like cities and books and small dogs and large mountains and awkward situations only in retrospect.

Story Behind The Book

This is a collection of short fiction I began writing while living in New York, but edited and had published after moving to Berlin, where I could look at the experience of life in Manhattan at a distance. The stories are about figuring things out, the right questions as much as their answers, and a lot of cliches about finding yourself that aren't cliches when you're living them.

Reviews

I loved The Heroes and Other Stories. Kat Hausler does an incredible job of making each character seem real and significant. Her stories are almost haunting and leave you thinking about what occurred long after reading the last word. My favorite one was the title story, The Heroes, with Peripeteia at a very close second. I could read these stories again and again!<br /><br />(customer review)
