Summary
“Strays” features ten 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; 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 and often humorous, “Strays” speaks to our desire to belong. c2013.
