THE GENUINE STORIES is a collection of linked short stories centered around Genevieve "Genuine" Erikkson, a woman with an uncanny ability to heal people. In her own voice, and those of family, friends, and the healed, Genuine's experiences peel back and expose the gritty aspects of power and privilege, the far reaching limit of parental love, the perpetually oscillating balance in relationships, and the ineffable nature of grief. "Each of these stories is a gem. Susan Daniels manages to pull the rug out from under even the smallest of gestures and the interactions of couples, families, and strangers, revealing over and over the human touch in all its guises as miraculous. In showing the act of healing, she uncovers human beings at their most vulnerable. These are wise stories, and the feeling of the miraculous and of grace is palpable in each of them. In this world, anything, she seems to tell us, is possible."--Karen Osborn, author of Centerville
