Twelve stories of small lives - and the sharp, quiet moments that remake them.
In The Thursdays of Summer and Other Stories, ordinary lives tilt - sometimes gently, sometimes all at once - towards the comic, the tender, and the uncanny. A boy watches a domestic battle ignite over a garage door. A late-night walk home ends with helping an injured stranger. In a Midlands pub, a solitary regular holds court among people only he can see.
Moving from council estates and seaside promenades to churchyards, technology parks, and river walks, Michael Heath's stories explore the small choices that follow us and the secrets we carry. By turns wry, elegiac, and quietly unsettling, this is a collection about those small moments in everyday life - where memory presses through, where grief haunts still, and where a familiar door does not quite close the way it should.
