Book
Strays : stories / Ed Kavanagh.
Collection features ten memorable stories that explore the lives of those who somehow find themselves adrift. In 'The Strayaway Child' a ninety-year-old woman recalls her girlhood during the Great Depression when she was a 'sad, silent little nobody'; in 'The Red Merc' a boy learns deep truths about his often absent father; and in 'The Wind' a Newfoundlander in a big Canadian city struggles with issues of identity. Affecting, finely crafted, and often humorous, Strays speaks, ultimately, to our desire to belong.
