Secure Soleil Compiled By Vendela Vida Edition

is a small press short story that I picked up and read in ten minutes, Vida has an amazing gift in that she can perfectly describe a character so accurately you feel as though every move or action this character makes is a revelation into his or her psyche.
It is the best kind of story where nothing much happens on the surface, rather it all teeming below in a churning mass of unspoken feelings and motives.
In getting to know her characters, you are inevitably getting to know the worst and best human traits, Elevenyearold Gabriele is taken for a night out by friend of the family Soleil, and finds herself somewhat disillusioned by previously interesting aspects of adulthood.
