Icicles and a Warm Breeze is the culmination of a lifetime of writing for Jeff Lassen, author of ’Desert Creek’ and ’This Poor Collection’. Each story is unique, often poignant and always evocative. Jeff writes of matters that play parts in all of our lives and he does so with a keen eye for truth. He treats each story with kindness as if the characters are alive, as in many stories, they or several people just like them, once were. Included in this volume is ’Desert Creek’, Jeff’s post-apocalytic thriller novella about surviving after the apocalypse and the choices each of us often have to make, putting others, even strangers, before ourselves because it is the right thing to do.
