Amber Sparks is the author of May We Shed These Human Bodies,
released by Curbside Splendor in 2012. Her work has been widely
published in print and online and you can find some of it at
ambernoellesparks.com or follow her on Twitter @ambernoelle.
Sparks's debut story collection swirls with a Tim Burton-like
whimsy...modern fables in which epiphanies replace moral lessons
and tales unfold with Grimm-like wickedness.
-- Publishers Weekly Best Small Press Debut of 2012.
-- The Atlantic Sometimes all it takes is a few sentences to knock
you off your rocker. Or at least that's the case in Sparks's debut
collection, which packs 30 short short stories, each its own modern
fable, into one handsome book.
-- Flavorwire There was Aesop, Thomas Bulfinch, Edith Hamilton,
Angela Carter--and now there is Amber Sparks with a new take on the
fable. May We Shed These Human Bodies is a clever, scary, and
charming debut collection full of great imagination.
-- Michael Kimball, author of Big Ray and Dear Everybody
