The Magic of Everyday Things

The Magic of Everyday Things by Austin Shirey, paperback

Paperback Available on Amazon

In the four short stories that make up Austin Shirey’s debut collection, ever-more-fantastic elements are gradually added to familiar, everyday scenarios—until the mundane is inseparable from the magical.

The Magic of Everyday Things is a seamless quilt of voices, settings, times, and characters in various stages of their lives. In this handful of breathless, dynamic journeys, Shirey urges us to hold onto hope and the way it mends what has been fractured, and shows us how shared difficulties bring us together.”
