Abstract/Description
The Construction of Dandelion Jars is a collection of short stories that have been complied over two years. The stories in this collection explore a variety of forms including modular, formalism, and surrealism. While there are eleven stories in this collection that all range through a variety of themes, some of the overarching themes found in this collection include: relationships, beauty in the mundane or ugly, corruption of the environment, and an awareness of being observed by an outsider. Several stories also explore an unsentimental version of motherhood. This collection explores the hoy and excitement in a world full of checklists, forms, and mold.
