Matthew Treya

I won this in a GOODREADS giveaway. "Namaste Stories: Volume 1" by Matthew Treya. One meaning of the word Namaste: reducing one's ego in the presence of another. That is about the only way I can sum up the running thread of this collection of... (what would I call them?!?)... short stories, poems, tidbits into another’s soul? I do not know if I liked or even enjoyed this book but some of stories put a smudge-mark in my mind! I imagine some philosophizer, a hundred years from now, will be quoting parts of it!… (mer)

Volume 1. A collection of thirty short stories. What a true gem of a collection. This is an excellent, richly varied selection of thirty tales. Very well written. I love this book it is a collective work of great short stories that are interesting and cover all of the different genres.

Short and to the point this collection is a joy to read. The important thing is that they should be read (or reread) and then we should take time to think about what the author has revealed. What was the author telling us? How does it relate to our own lives, to the particular stage we are going through?… (mer)
