Briefs

How many ways are there to leave a lover? The answer is surely far, far fewer than there are ways to recover. Like most lovers left, Tanya Thistleton's characters refuse the victims cloak, accept the travails of change and in the end find salvation. Some, just some, even sup on cold revenge. There are other pieces, including one on the first time and the father battling the prejudices of a man hating independent children lawyer. And of course there is a story about a dragon. A great collection of short stories about real people with real problems.
