Catch My Drift Stories to Float Your Boat
"It's only fair to warn you that once you open this book you will be swept up into a parade of colorful and unforgettable characters-cynics and dreamers, corrupt politicians and wide-eyed innocents, artists, musicians, songwriters, bird- watchers, good cooks, and feisty grandmothers."
Simultaneously unique and connected, this collection of short stories explore relationships, communication, and staying cool in crises small and large. From sisters trying to reconnect to a young woman fleeing an ex liable to punch down a door, Catch My Drift doesn’t flinch from uncomfortable moments and flawed logic. In fact, it is through those uncomfortable moments that Gribbin’s characters find the reason for their pain.
Beyond the stories rooted in loss, love, and moving on after both, Gribbin’s trademark wit raises the stories up from the page. These tales will speak to readers who understand how difficult it can be to exist with other people in the world and what it means to keep trying despite it all.
