The Candle Game is the debut collection of short stories from Chris Nelson. The fifteen stories contained in this collection range from the introspective and thought-provoking to the unexpected and surreal: a strange game is played out with far-reaching consequences; a man is haunted by an event rooted in his childhood; disparate events weave in and out of one another with bizarre effect; a man finds the lines between dreams and reality become blurred; and is life surrounding the factory really all it seems to be?

Autorenporträt
Chris Nelson was born in the East of England but grew up in the city of Birmingham in the West Midlands. He worked as a teacher in Dudley for over 35 years. He has previously published 'Falling Sleet' an anthology of over 120 poems covering a range of themes, 'The Candle Game' a collection of short stories and 'Another Tease', a collection of poetry, short prose fiction and lyrics covering themes as diverse as love & war, faith & loss and hope & depression. The lyrics have no melodies - each one is left open for the reader to create their own interpretation. All three books have been published through Lulu. He has previously had poems published in the anthologies 'The Poets Symphony' and 'Creation and the Cosmos' (both edited by Tara Caribou and available from Raw Earth Ink through Lulu and other online platforms). He has also had a short story 'The Guest House' published in the anthology 'Static Dreams - Volume 2'. He lives in Stourbridge with his wife, children and a host of pets.
