Synopsis:

As a child, Charlotte spent her summers with her cousins in a house that was the polar opposite of her own. Where her household was organized and ran according to schedule, her cousins lived in a state of constant chaos. For Charlotte, this was both exciting and frightening, especially when her aunt’s cousin Dorcas—who is said to hear spirits—came to visit, her presence enhancing the already strange atmosphere of the house.

Fever is a collection of sixteen short stories that reveal the secret inner lives of women and men, skilfully peeling back their defenses to expose crystallizing moments of joy, pain, fear, and guiltless pleasure. Sharon Butala infuses Fever with an intensity of emotion that often catches readers off guard, making for a reading experience that is always honest and powerful.
