Publisher's Synopsis
Coalescence by Piper Bringman is a collection of essays and short stories written over the course of a few years. A combination of daydreams, wonderings, nightmares, and school assignments, all compiled into an amalgamation of thoughts. Fiction, fantasy, science fiction, and nonfiction are spread throughout its pages, and, as the book goes on, the short stories begin as young adult, and then move through juvenile fiction into children's tales, to signify taking all of the parts and different moments of a childhood to coalesce them into one. Into the experience of one life and into the experience of now. Every story was picked with intention, creating not just a collection of stories, but a story told by stories.
