Short stories, occasionally tongue-in-cheek, exploring the notion that sometimes we bring disaster upon ourselves by our own actions. And if we do, can we blame others for that? Other times it is the absurdities of modern life that hold us in thrall. In all cases, as these stories suggest, can we take a sly, sideways look at people? How will their day - and ours - end? Do they glance at us and wonder likewise? How often do the hapless escape a come-uppance? Whatever the answers, we will never cease our sideways speculation.
