From Judith preparing to listen to love messages from the moon to Isabelle awaiting the return of her lover to an island in the South Pacific, from a funeral in Minnesota to the last days of vaudeville and from an elderly man and his memories to unrequited love in London, in this collection of short stories and vignettes John Oates explores the excitement, regrets, hopes and sadnesses of his characters at pivotal moments in their lives and in their relationships.
