Longtime friend and client of WA Mathieu Cailler recently celebrated the release of his seventh book, Forest for the Trees & Other Stories from Hidden Peak Press! We’re delighted and honored to host a virtual read-aloud of the titular story on our YouTube Channel!
About the Book
In Forest for the Trees & Other Stories, Mathieu Cailler delivers a diverse collection of fifteen shorts that perfectly captures characters steeped in their own troubles. With clear and pointed prose, Cailler creates a conduit through which readers experience the characters’ sufferings, losses, revelations, their moments of connection, and their snippets of happiness. The author’s experimentation with voice and point of view makes this collection honest and accessible, allowing readers to feel true compassion by better understanding others and the imperfect world we all inhabit.
