Summer is coming and what could it be more rewarding than spending the sunny days discovering new topics and authors? A collective of North Atlantic authors - English speakers - had the bright idea to create an anthology of short stories inspired by the best season of the year: Summer Paths.
The volume is the forth from a seasonal collection inspired by the year´s seasons, with summer closing the yearly cycle.
The volume itself is short, easy to read in few hours, but covering a diversity of topics and styles. There are some taking place on against a travel background, but summer paths may lead the reader to many different directions, such as family memories, ancient beliefs, love, mysterious encounters with strangers in airplanes.
I enjoyed the diversity of styles and topics and the overall dynamics of the volume. There are some ideas I would love to read more about. The idea of seasonal story collections resonates with my own desire to bring more bookish meaning around the year, therefore most probably I will be interested in reading the other volumes as well.
Rating: 4 stars
