About the Book:
In Nothing Looks Familiar, Shawn Syms’ debut story collection, characters from a wide swath of society chart paths from places of danger or unhappiness into the great unknown, each grappling with a central and sometimes unanswerable question: if you fight to change your circumstances, could it be possible to reconfigure your very identity? From bullied kids to meth-smoking mothers, characters in dire straits take measures— sometimes drastic ones—to take charge of their own fates.
