| Publisher Description: Providing fresh and unnerving perspectives on life, this collection of seductive and provocative stories explores the games people play and the tales that they tell. These eclectic narratives feature an old lady who dangles desperate messages from her window, the secret to writing a worldwide bestseller, and the wondering if such events as a day at the beach in Paekakariki, Wellington harbor at dusk, or a new pair of shoes from Dunedin can permanently change one's outlook. With quirky humor and extraordinary insights, this compelling collection of tales emphasizes themes of universal human frailty. |
