| Summary | Bury Your Horses and Other Stories is a book-length collection of original short stories. The work is intended to be understood as a complete book as well as its individual stories. The work presents variations on the themes of loss and reconciliation. In each of these stories, the principle characters lose something they believe they cannot live without: a love, their independence, a carefully constructed sense of identity, etc. These characters are then forced to reconcile with their losses, and often times those responsible for their losing. The intent of these stories is to interrogate human relationships and demonstrate that loss does not always signify an ending, and reconciliation not always satisfying or possible.Bury Your Horses and Other Stories is a book-length collection of original short stories.
