Other People's Lives

From the humour surrounding a man and his car, through the remembrances of a dying man, from the world of stultifying bureaucracy, to the experiences of war veterance, and the danger and stupidity of political correctness. From the little quirks of history to the adventures of a naive traveller caught up in a French crime drama, these stories provide a glimpse of how some other people spend their lives.

They are people just like us, our parents and our grandparents, trying to make sense of life's vicissitudes and the rare and precious rewards life occasionally offers us.

You will identify with some or all of these people, laugh at their comical errors. grieve with them for lost love and opportunities, wonder at the adventure and danger random happenings can bring to ordinary lives, and applaud the courage and steadfastness of some of them in the face of unaccustomed difficulties.

Most of all, you will enjoy the satisfaction you will get from a damn good read.

Enjoy!
