When participants in a group-therapy session are asked to describe their first memories, long-buried demons and emotions flood out. It’s a valuable exercise for everyone except the story’s narrator.
The thirteen stories in Andrew Pyper’s intense and artful short-story collection, Kiss Me, deal with the issues, sensibilities and intangible estrangements of contemporary youth. But there are no neat and tidy coming-of-age passages here: these are narratives about reaching out—and often failing to touch—one another in a time of both privilege and fracture.
