This collection of short stories gently meanders around a theme of journeys and relationships.
The book opens with a bus journey to Manchester, seen from the points of view of a varied selection of passengers. Other stories explore the varied personalities in a cycling club, the dynamics of a large group of young siblings who hi-jack a steam roller, or the self-doubts of a young female quarry manager when confronted with a supernatural entity. The characters are drawn with humour and gentleness, their stories examining the bonds of friendship or affection. These pen portraits will raise a wry smile, a sigh of sympathy, or in one case, raised eyebrows.
