Travel can expand your mind, but sometimes lingering reservations slip in through the cracks. Untreed Reads is proud to announce a new literary short by Irene Black, out now worldwide.

Samsara by Irene Black

A dream holiday cruise along the Yangtze River in China forces Alison and Tom to face some uncomfortable truths about their lives, when Tom encounters a young Chinese woman, with “Buddha eyes, skin like moonlight and hair like the water at nightfall,” who mesmerizes him with the ancient wisdom of the East. A short story.

Irene Black was previously a psychologist and teacher and has lived in the USA, Australia and India. She has a Masters degree in Asian Arts. She has won national and international prizes for short stories and poetry, including the 2003 National Association of Writers’ Groups Annual Short Story award. She has three published novels, two, The Moon’s Complexion and Darshan: a journey, based in India and the third, Noontide Owls, a crossover fantasy. Her previous Untreed Reads releases are Street Talk and Trade Secrets, both short stories.
