Sinopsis

These twenty short stories, set in Ireland, Britain, France, and America, offer eloquent glimpses into joy, frustration, and pain. They explore the many layers of human experience, capturing our flaws, desires, and vulnerabilities with striking clarity. Each story is crafted with precision, emotional depth, and poetic insight. The characters reveal behaviours that range from generous to mean-spirited, reflecting the full spectrum of what it means to be human. This collection shows how often our hopes are derailed by cruel twists of fate. Life, as these stories reveal, can be filled with irony and unexpected outcomes.
