★★★★★ A fun-to-read collection of short stories!Heartfelt, clever, and witty writing. Derryl Berry’s Short Stories will make you think, smile, and laugh out loud. Nicely captures human experiences and also includes imaginative fictional stories. I highly recommend this book.-A Williams, Reviewed in the United States on August 17, 2021The genre and style of Derryl G. Berry’s 'A Handful of Lives, A World of Meaning' is quite varied. Some are straightforward, first or third-person POV. Some are off-the-wall perspectives and musings. Some are 'circular' in that they begin and end pretty much at the same point, e.g., 'Let’s Act Normal.' Many of Derryl’s short stories began as an idea that came to him while hiking and were fleshed out later, e.g., 'Five Shots,' and 'The Empty Hook.' Others were triggered by a passing comment, e.g., 'Who in the World Is Jimmy Kent?' A few have a touch of biographical near reality. Others are plain fantasy, e.g., 'Misspelled' and 'Kong Is Dead.' A few are retellings of biblical stories. Others, Derryl doesn’t know from where the ideas came.
