LITTLE BLACK BOOKS
Filled with redactions and missing pages, LITTLE BLACK BOOKS blends science-fiction with fantasy by embracing the document variety found in epistolary novels like The Mysterious Case of the Alperton Angels, combining it with the fantastical and psychological mysteries of Piranesi, and will appeal to readers who enjoy character centric narratives and worlds rich with lore.
About
LITTLE BLACK BOOKS is an exploration of 2nd person narration through an epistolary format in a fantasy setting. The process of writing the manuscript involved learning and researching modes of interactive literature, and LITTLE BLACK BOOKS is the resultant of integrating that research.
While complete, LITTLE BLACK BOOKS is currently seeking representation.
