Author Eliot Parker Spins Short Stories With Strange, Creepy and Sometimes Poignant Twists in “Snapshots” [Ep 147][Under the Covers]

October 09, 2020

In this Under the Covers episode, we visit with Eliot Parker, author of “Snapshots: A Collection of Short Stories,” which is set largely in Eastern, Kentucky, Southern Ohio and West Virginia. It was a 2020 finalist in the American Fiction Awards for short story anthology.

Diane Donovan, Senior Reviewer, Midwest Book Review, says that these stories “challenge readers to think about their expectations and prejudices” and are “strong in tension development, plot, and the ability to craft something unexpected and different from disparate life experiences.”

Meredith Sue Willis, author of “Out of The Mountains and Re-Visions,” says that “Eliot is an observer and imaginer of life's quirky, ironic, random pay backs. His stories almost always have some twist or turn or surprise at the end-- in many cases the punishment of a nasty main character.”
