>In an Uncharted Country in Richmond Times-Dispatch

>I had a pleasant surprise today when I saw that In an Uncharted Country was mentioned in today’s Virginia Book Notes in the Richmond Times-Dispatch:

A dozen short stories make up In an Uncharted Country (186 pages, Press 53, $14), the latest offering from Staunton author Clifford Garstang, a Fellow of the Virginia Center for the Creative Arts.

These taut, Virginia-set stories explore a variety of emotional landscapes and showcase the characters at times of loss.

Garstang’s work has appeared in a number of literary magazines, including the Virginia Quarterly Review and Shenandoah.

I’m looking forward to doing an event or two in the Richmond area in the near future.
