A country girl discovers a new life after encountering a UFO and a woman returns to her childhood home to find her father. A man modelling for an artist gets more than he bargained for and a country boy looks for love in the big city. A man diagnosed with cancer goes on a flower-buying spree while a sculptor is seduced by and elopes with his own statue. This collection of short stories navigates the reader through the frailties and quirkiness of the human condition with raw honesty and a compassionate lack of sentimentality.
