Colin O’Sullivan Features Tales Sure to be a Favorite of Readers Everywhere

“Author Colin O’Sullivan’s new collection of fiction features all genres and delivers hard hitting, realistic prose to the delight of readers.”

Good fiction of any genre is a pleasure to read. However, when one piece of fiction gives readers a little bit of each genre written in a way that captures attention and interest, then that book is a gift to readers everywhere. Such is the case with Colin O’Sullivan’s new collection of short stories entitled Anhedonia.

O’Sullivan, an author already celebrated in literary journals and magazines, features twenty stories in his first ever published collection. The stories range from the strange exploits of losers to dreamers and outcasts on the margins of life, aloof from the perceived notions of normality. They vary in genre from comedy to sci-fi to the macabre. The strength of this collection is in its variety, and the variety is definitely what makes this collection hard hitting as it represents the best of all types of fiction.

“The characters are often on the margins, weirdoes, people with pronounced perverted streaks or whimsies, certainly there is a lot of oddness, quirkiness, but I relish the peculiar, citing Japanese writers like Haruki Murakami and Kobo Abe as strong influences,” O’ Sullivan explains.

“Having lived as an Irishman in Japan, I have come to recognize what it means to live outside, never truly belonging, and these stories (some set in Ireland, England, and Japan) reflect this sense of exile and isolation while maintaining a dark contemporary edge.”
