This Is How He Learned To Love

First runner-up in the Sonder Press 2018 Chapbook Competition, Randall Brown's This Is How He Learned To Love, is a masterfully crafted collection of 37 brief, yet luminous fictions. Brown's prose is spare, and as delicately rendered as the windows he grants into the worlds of his characters, yet the stories gathered here are deeply, utterly resonant. This Is How He Learned To Love captures the true vastness of the human heart--its susceptibility and perseverance; its resilience; and, above all, its indelible, persistent yearning for connection.
