Description:
Sandra Thompson takes us inside the lives of women struggling to find their places among lovers, husbands and ex-husbands, mothers, and children in relationships where old rules do not apply and new rules have not yet been set.
Thompson's characters live in a world where dreams often supersede reality and things are not as they seem. Her style is sophisticated and subtle, and we experience her stories almost by osmosis. They stay with us afterwards to question their own realities.Brief description: SANDRA THOMPSON is a native of Chicago and a graduate of Ohio Wesleyan University and Brooklyn College, where she received her MFA. She lives in Tampa, Florida.
