Profoundly emotional, conceptually acute, yet grounded in the grit and bravery of daily life, these 22 carefully crafted tales probe life's crisis moments and its ordinary hours. Among the stories: an encounter on a mountain trail wakens a veteran's numbed emotions; two French Resistance fighters balance desperate action and shy new love; a 1960s peace activist finds personal and political identity; to protect her baby, a single mother must fight her own terrors; a dying woman seeks a final shred of meaning; a "detained" immigrant child can no longer recall normal life; in 2460, an elegant alien and a human woman too briefly find love; Davey and Danly had, until now, outwitted each pandemic.

  • "Damn well writtten. These are sharp stories: they pierce one's heart"--Helen Chuckrow, Interpreting the Bible with Chutzpah
  • "Sometimes fiction can profoundly expose the author's soul. Dancing close to autobiography, these well-written tales burn from the page"--Richard Bunning, Spider World and Other Fictions
