The Dust in Sunlight is a hybrid compilation - part memoir, part fiction - of travelers' tales by new writer Christopher Rees that run the gamut from contemporary social realism and globalism to mystical realism. These deeply reflective stories - mainly told through the eyes of the peripatetic Daniel Lookfar - span several countries and continents; Afghanistan, France, Guatemala, Mexico, the Dominican Republic and the United States. In this intriguing collection, Rees illuminates how politics, wealth, history, migration, and culture influence human interactions to create fate. From the leafy heart of a forest in the south of France, to cornfields in the Dominican Republic, to the dusty expanse of Afghanistan, The Dust in Sunlight reveals worlds at once foreign and familiar, with unforgettable characterizations and frank observations of human behavior.

From a roadside shack in Guatemala to a dental chair in Mexico, from a mountainside in Peru to a pile of rocks on a French hillside.A man selling peanuts, a lone sailor navigating the Caribbean Sea, a girl selling her body, a lost son on a white swan, a soldier sent off to war and a woman caught in a winter of snow.Daniel Lookfar had found all of these and more. But there were a few things he still needed to find. Like someone to love, a home, and a way to get there.
