Short description

Though the characters in these fourteen stories lead separate lives, they are connected in ways both mysterious and commonplace. Whether wandering the globe, or merely dreaming of change, they circle back home time and again, in search of the past and a sense of belonging.

Extended description

Angela longs for a deeper connection with her mother, however disappointed she may be in her daughter's life choices. Julia looks forward to retiring to an isolated cottage by the sea, regardless of some painful memories attached to the place and a daughter who'd rather see her safely ensconced in a retirement community. Sara struggles to overcome her grief in a foreign land, only to find sympathy and understanding from an unexpected source. Ross hopes to find love in free-wheeling Amsterdam. And Malcolm, washed ashore in chilly Germany, longs to return to his island home, despite the troubles awaiting him there.

Though the characters in these fourteen stories lead separate lives, they are connected in ways both mysterious and commonplace. Whether wandering the globe, or merely dreaming of change, they circle back home time and again, in search of the past and a sense of belonging.
