Publisher's Synopsis
Sometimes lyrical, sometimes tough, these stories deal with the foibles and frailties of acutely drawn characters pursuing freedom, love, beauty, and adventure amidst the stark realities of life. These pursuits might be at the end of a dictatorship in Spain, on an exotic Mediterranean island, or as a Spanish bride-to-be encountering Canada for the first time. Frank, provocative, and haunting, these pieces range from dark comedy to quirky uncertain romance and edgy thriller. The writing is vivid, sensual, and contemporary.
