"A Little More Complicated"

Available in EPUB, MOBI, and PDF formats. Read on your Kindle, phone, tablet, computer and more

Six stories. Six messy lives. And nothing quite as simple as it seems. A preacher discovers that even salvation has a subscription fee. A dead mother's confession threatens to expose a lifetime of secrets. A lonely Christmas takes an unexpected turn. And a romantic dinner proves that some things are better left off the menu. Welcome to A Little More Complicated, six sharply observed short stories from Mo Fanning, where good intentions go astray, people make spectacularly questionable decisions, and life rarely delivers the ending anyone ordered. Moving from the absurdities of modern America to the complicated business of love, family and finding somewhere to belong, these stories mix dark humour, tenderness, satire and the occasional nasty surprise. Some will make you laugh. Others might break your heart a little. A few may leave you wondering what you'd have done differently. Because people are complicated. And thank goodness for that.
