Anthologies Editorial Review
Robert Sheehan's debut collection of short stories, Disappearing Act: A Host of Other Characters in 16 Short Stories, has been receiving positive reviews from readers. The book contains 16 distinct stories, each exploring unique themes and characters, showcasing Sheehan's talent for storytelling in print as well as on screen. As an actor, Sheehan is already celebrated for his diversity in roles, and his writing is no different. Each story in Disappearing Act is gripping, and the book as a whole reveals a chameleon-like approach to the craft of writing that perfectly compliments Sheehan's dramatic work. Despite some of the stories being dark, twisted, and disturbing, readers found the book to be a fun and exciting read. The writing is well crafted and has thoughtful and insightful dialogue, leading to a taste of spirited freedom that is hard to come by elsewhere. Some readers found the audiobook version, narrated by Sheehan himself, to be even better than the physical book, citing his delightful Irish accent and vivacious spirit as key elements in enhancing the stories. Overall, Disappearing Act is well worth a read for those looking for a new and unique voice in literature, and for fans of Sheehan's work in front of the camera.
