About Girl by the River

Like a river runs from the highest sources, dives down mountainsides and  through forests and cities all across the world, so a river runs through the lives of the young gilrs and women in this short story collection. As a silent witness, a soothing passers by or a roaring accomplice, the river flows through veils of time and great distances, playing a vital part in the lives unfolding in Girl by the River as they live through great obstacles and great losses, great accomplishments and great loves.
