A stunning collection of short stories from acclaimed author Dilys Rose. Two travelling musicians attempt to come to terms with a nightmare scenario at home; restless teenagers run riot during lockdown, with disastrous consequences; Albert Einstein's reputation grows, as does his absence as a father; a cantankerous ninety-nine year old contributes to the chaos of a night ward. Each story vividly creates the inner world of a compelling yet disparate cast of characters, and these brief glimpses into the lives of others leave a lasting afterglow.
