This collection of stories weaves its way through the 20th century from the First World War and its aftermath, briefly examining life's smaller conflicts (no less intensive than those between the sexes), chronicling victory and defeat, losses and gains, and all the fun and misery in-between. The stories are about people living or just passing through places around the world, finding and losing love - sometimes both at the same time - or often just being amazed at what this world has to offer.
