Sad Stories and a Few Happy Ones

By Michael Huynh

"It was just a silly fantasy, but it made her happy." Twelve tales of roads well travelled, roads not taken, and roads taken too soon. Within the pages of this collection we befriend the beautiful girl in a cozy Manhattan bookstore; learn the sorrowful history behind a man's three tattoos; venture beyond a mysterious Jade Wall for lost truths; grow up with two childhood friends with a shared dream of sailing the sea; introduce a girlfriend who doesn't believe in God to a Catholic home on Christmas Eve; live a life full of love with the Hanscomb's in suburban Everton Valley; reconvene with old friends at a long-awaited dinner party; and follow a girl with nothing left but her song on a journey to be enshrined in the halls of Rock 'n' Roll glory. In "Sad Stories and a Few Happy Ones", we watch people living with thoughts of regret and lost love as they search for the will to move forward through life's many long and arduous paths.
