A stunning new collection of short stories from master storyteller Owen Marshall.
'So much is chance, don't you think?'
Accidental meetings, unexpected turns in the road, job offers that take you into new territories- our lives seem arbitrary and unpredictable, as if at the whim of the god of fortune.
In this latest, stunning collection of short stories by acclaimed writer Owen Marshall, people teeter on the brink of experience. From murder to an affair, to a promotion or a breakdown, the array of vivid characters aren't always aware of what they encounter, not sure whether they are being given an opportunity, a challenge, a temptation, a lesson, or just another day to get through.
Meanwhile, feelings of fear, lust, curiosity and frustration simmer beneath the surface. Will the people grasp what life throws at them?
'What are the chances, aye? One in a million or more, like being struck by lightning or having a satellite fall on you, yet it has to happen to someone.'
