- Ten Tales from the In-between

Om Shadow Play

Shadow Play: Ten Tales from the In-between is a collection of fantastical and interconnected stories written by Sarina Dahlan. At first glance the characters may appear unrelated: A girl living with a silent grandmother in World War II-era Bangkok, a septuagenarian writing his memoir in upstate New York, a kampong witch doctor, the residents of a rundown hotel in the Tenderloin district, lost souls in Central Park. Yet, they are all connected by a karmic web across time. By turns unexpected, funny, heartbreaking, and horrifying, this debut collection is an excursion into the strange and the magical hidden in the mundane. A fusion of the realistic and the supernatural that explores the concept of self by those stuck in-between. www.sarinadahlan.com SHADOW PLAY A thirteen-year-old girl's anti-coming-of-age story set against the backdrop of WWII Bangkok. Bangkok, Thailand, 1942 GLIMMER GLASS A retired war journalist struggles to write a memoir.
