Mahfouz, Halle

"Tell Me About Yourself and Other Stories is a short story collection examining the construction of identity through relationships and choices. Spanning genre and form, these stories explore how pieces of the self are borrowed from experience and how people react to the weights of memory and outside perception. The collection is a blend of traditional short stories and flash fiction, of realism and hyperrealism, digging into both the discomfort and solace of human connection." -- Abstract
