Whether it’s the young mother in Doctor’s Orders fighting to get the right treatment, the joyrider in Going Nowhere who protects his selectively mute half-sister, the single parent being bullied at work in I Also Had My Hour or the elderly woman whose life does an about-turn in They Also Serve Who Only, the characters in these stories spring to life in memorable situations readers can easily identify with.
Written with a lightness of touch and a compassionate warmth that shines through every story, this outstanding collection is original, profound, and a must-read for everyone.
