This collection moves across a wide range of human struggle, examining the damaging moments that unfold in everyday lives. Some pieces trace the strains within ordinary partnerships, while others offer an imaginative picture of city living. Social observation sits alongside intensely private material. The stories are linked by their attention to the battles fought quietly within personal lives, and the result is a varied gathering of short fiction by a Canadian author who writes with unflinching care about the people he portrays.
