Water and Blood

“We can drown ourselves in fear and guilt. Or we can let it go, let it be washed away, like dirt after a long day’s work.”

—Julie Ann Stewart, Water and Blood

Praise for Water and Blood

“Julie Ann Stewart’s stories bind the reader’s attention to themselves with the vividness and strength of ‘hoops of steel.’”

— Sena Jeter Naslund, author of Ahab’s Wife

“With prose that manages to be both lithe and modest, Stewart has conjured not just whole worlds, but whole lifetimes. A stunning collection.”

— Brad Felver, author of The Dogs of Detroit
