Review
"Art Corriveau writes poignantly and unsentimentally about characters caught up in difficult, almost unbearable, situations. But he's equally aware of the redemptive power of loving relationships and family ties." —Time Out London
"These are wonderful stories, beautifully written, evoking a world and a time that are fascinating. I read the book in one sitting." —Lynn Freed, author, The Curse of the Appropriate Man
Product Description
Woven together by common threads of love and loss, this heartwarming collection chronicles the broken lives of people on the margins and the families and friendships that piece them back together. From a street hustler in Montreal and a priest in Burkina Faso, to the mother of a bride in Boston and a blind woman in Amsterdam, crisis gives rise to magical moments of shared recovery. Serving up equal portions of drama and resolution, these offbeat tales offer a satisfying glimpse into the universality of the human condition.
