Abstract
My thesis, In the Light of What They Suffer, is a collection of six short stories which examine the different ways grace can manifest in our lives, and the consequences of its absence. Each story features characters who, in one way or another, are tangling with atonement. Will the grace they so desperately need be extended? And will the grace on offer make a difference regarding their perceived mistakes and transgressions? While writing this thesis, I was challenged in particular to restrain the tensions in my stories to more adequately fit the short story medium.
