Winner of FC2's Catherine L. Doctorow Innovative Fiction Prize.
Stories that explore the potent and captivating boundaries between
the real and the imaginary. Aurelie Sheehan's Once into the Night
is a collection of 57 brief stories-a fictional autobiography made
of assumed identities and what-ifs. What is the difference between
fiction and a lie? These stories dwell in a netherworld between
memory and the imagination, exploring the nature of truthtelling.
Here the inner life is granted pride of place with authenticity
found in misremembered childhood notebooks, invisible tattoos, and
the love life of icemen. Radical in its conception of story, this
collection blurs the line between fiction, poetry, and essay,
reconceiving contemporary autofiction in its own witty, poignant
vernacular. The stories intersect with and deviate from a
""provable"" life-a twin distinction that becomes the source of
their power.
