Apple & Palm by Patricia Henley

Apple & Palm by Patricia Henley

I reviewed Patricia Henley's short story collection Apple & Palm for MicroLit Almanac - read it here!

Though Patricia Henley’s Apple & Palm introduces a wide cast of characters, its true protagonist may be Whistle Pig itself. The town and its surrounding land form the connective tissue between stories, linking women across generations, families, friendships, and chance encounters. Certain landmarks reappear throughout stories, creating the sense that geography itself is responsible for bringing these lives together.
