Add to basketA collection of microfiction and short stories by Australian author and artist, Richard Holt.
Richard Holt invites readers into corners that become dark, into places in which they do not belong and into moments that will change things utterly for his imperfect protagonists. The stories in What you might find grapple with misunderstandings, the weight of pasts and the moments when fates change course.
Richard Holt’s stories are truly addictive: perfectly formed, funny and tragic glimpses under the surface of life.
TONI JORDAN, Our Tiny, Useless Hearts
Richard Holt's work combines unique storytelling voices, finely crafted stories and an appreciation of the particular constraints and possibilities of flash fiction.
CALUM KERR, Director, National Flash-Fiction Day (UK)
In the fewest of words, Richard Holt evokes powerful moods, morally complex stories, immersive settings, and characters that are heartbreakingly human. His stories are a deft blending of literary and vernacular voices.
