    Summary

    Four years after a bitter divorce, Carol Sturka tracks down her conman ex-wife with a proposition to go after a corporation that commits wage theft on a grand scale. Carol's plan is sound; surely this will be easy, and even more surely nobody will get emotionally compromised.

    Summary

    He has sung the adhan since he was very young, and each time he always reminds himself to never take it for granted. Especially now, with the call being one of the only things that resemble solace to him, and he is still willing to do the best.

    On better days, he thinks, people would repeat nearly all of his words in supplication. He cannot imagine them doing so now, though there is always a possibility of them doing it just so they can make him happy. It pains him, but he keeps going.

    ---

    For Abdul Kareem Alsharei, 37-year-old muezzin from Aden, Yemen, the new world he has found himself in prompts an array of questions about faith.

    Summary

    Freedom Falls because clearly I feel sorry for Carol Sturka but also desperately want her entire backstory...

    A HUGE CW: this story is set in a conversion camp in the late 1980s and features the kind of slurs you would expect from the era and subject matter. Slightly more detail below. You might want to give this one a miss if you’re looking for something nice and happy.

    The words “queer”, “dyke” are used a lot as a pejorative, and “fag/faggot” is also used at points in a demeaning manor. There are also a few instances of misogyny and the words “slut” and “whore” are both used to describe women.

    Basically there’s just a lot of homophobia and Carol’s own internalised homophobia is ever-present.

    --

    Summary

    Three days since she climbed out of a helicopter on her front lawn, grabbed a handle of whiskey, and crawled into bed. Three days since she started drinking until she lost consciousness, only to wake up and do it all over again. And again. She doesn’t remember much beyond retching over the toilet in the dark, cool porcelain pressed into her cheek, fingers opening and closing around empty air.

    Three days, during which it occurs to her that she hasn’t heard from Manousos at all.

    Summary

    Two years after the Unjoining, she saw Zosia in London, of all places – nearly unrecognizable in her winter attire – bundled up to her nose. But Carol felt her presence like a sawed-off shotgun wound to her stomach. The sight of her eyes peeking over the edge of her scarf, sparkling with mirth as she shouldered the woman she was walking with –

    Well, it was fucking devastating.


    ‘Who is Carol?’ Spray-painted in canary yellow, stood out against the rain-darkened concrete of the building across the street from The Ritz where Carol was staying.

    When Helen tags along with her client on a writer's retreat, she thinks fabricating her own writing chops will be the biggest challenge the trip has to offer. But the setting reminds Carol a little too starkly of things she'd rather not remember, and more than anything Helen is determined to protect her from them all.
