Abstract

This collection of six short stories examines the lives of characters who have been betrayed or abandoned by family, friends, or lovers. These are stories of characters stuck in patterns of behavior who often use fantasy to cope with or skew their reality. However, these stories also demonstrate the triumph of breaking these patterns, of moving on, letting go, and persevering in spite of hurt and disappointment.
