WHEN WE COME BACK is the startling new collection where D. H. Schleicher explores both recent history and visions of the future through literary and speculative fiction.

Some stories traverse how everyday people are impacted by events like the global pandemic, the Great Recession or the dot-com bubble. Other tales paint a dystopian world post-climate catastrophe or a far-flung future where an evolution in AI produces surprising results.

Across these stories, characters struggle to connect, find meaning, and move forward in the face of sometimes tragic and always shifting headwinds.

My thoughts on When We Come Back

When We Come Back Instagram

I have the privilege of reviewing When We Come Back: More Stories by D H Schleicher today.

This thought-provoking 2-hour read of Short Stories will entertain the reader through multiple re-reads. I pick up a new tidbit every time I read it. It’s the kind of book you leave on the nightstand for a quick “bedtime story.” That’s providing you like your tales a little on the dark side.

Now don’t get me wrong, this is not a horror book. This collection of stories will make you think about bad pranks, an entire neighborhood’s dealings with a murderous cat, climate issues, loneliness, and the future, to name a few. You’ll get a chance to ponder what you would do in many situations. The paths we choose always affect more than just ourselves.

The author has a smooth writing style that pulls emotion from the reader during even the shortest tale. I have not read a single book from Mr. Schleicher that I did not fully enjoy. (See the bottom of this post for more reviews.)

If you are searching for a unique, gripping book of short stories, grab a copy today! I give When We Come Back my highest recommendation.

About D H Schleicher

Who is D H Schleicher?

I am an independent author, blogger, and film enthusiast from the South Jersey suburbs of Philadelphia, where I live with my wife (also a blogger among other greater things) and son, and plot travel as much as I plot stories when not immersed in my other career in the corporate world.

My new collection of literary and speculative fiction, WHEN WE COME BACK, was released in January of 2023. My preceding collection, AND THEN WE VANISH, explores characters longing to disappear or left behind by those who already have. My historical thriller, THEN CAME DARKNESS, plumbs the depths of greed, revenge, and family dysfunction during the Great Depression.

Additionally, my writing has appeared in A Million and One Magazine, Underground VoicesScratch, Eunoia Review, LitNoir, and Wonders in the Dark.

My influences are many from the world of literature, film, and beyond, which you can learn about by clicking through the pages of my blog.
