Ever wondered about the person standing behind you in a queue or sitting at the bus stop or guarding a set of paintings in a gallery? What are their stories? Do you have anything in common with them? We are all victims of human frailty and weakness, but we are also survivors of these human flaws. The tales in this collection are simple and relevant, because the people they feature could be any one of us, and we can all relate to their struggles on some level. Each story is brief and to the point and filled with humour, pathos and a dose of reality. In these words, you'll find something that takes little time to read but will live longer in your memory.
