Assistant Professor of English Tina Hall's novella, All the Day's Sad Stories, won the 2008 Caketrain Chapbook Competition and will be published by Caketrain this spring.
Her manuscript was chosen by Brian Evenson, novelist and chair of the Literary Arts Program at Brown University, who called "the language beautifully rendered, the situation quiet in a way that makes it sneak up on you." The novella consists of 48 short short stories which trace a year in the life of a couple who is trying to conceive a child while being stalked by someone who repeatedly vandalizes their house.
