KN Magazine: Short Stories
The Final Portrait
As a military junta closes in, a young painter races to finish a portrait that may do more than capture a face—it may capture a soul. The Final Portrait is a tense, magical-realist political thriller about art as resistance, the legacy of grief, and the deadly power hidden in a pair of painted eyes.
CONFESSION
A haunting epistolary short story in which a woman finally reveals the truth about the 1931 Hawke’s Bay earthquake, the child she lost, and the new identity she forged to survive. A confession of grief, reinvention, and the fragile boundary between the past we flee and the past that shapes us.
