About This Book

The ten stories in Patricia Robertson's first collection of short fiction offer a somber, shadowed world of characters who strive for other, more magical destinations. The book's mood and images are stark and carefully controlled. And while Robertson roots each tale very firmly in the here and now, a few of her characters actually find their way into the imaginary....City of Orphans is a thoughtful, well-written collection.
