A homeless man makes a spectacular bid for redemption; a young boy confronts his deepest fears; a mother watches helplessly as her son moves beyond reach; a husband looks for a miracle to save his marriage and a new pet drags its owner into a world of paranoia. From the macabre to the ominous, the comic to the nostalgic, the gritty to the poignant, this diverse collection of short stories by new writers from across the world explores the light and the darkness beneath the facade of so-called ordinary lives.

"For those who delight in flight and flutter, in lives as rapid as our own, in pulses that seem momentarily to exist beyond the need for hearts, these fine stories await and will be worth your time" - Toby Litt"
