Résumé
A collection of thirteen short stories, examining the modern family. In the title story, a hippie meets a then-unknown Joni Mitchell; in others, a single father obsesses over an imminent bee invasion, a teacher testifies against alleged paedophilic colleagues, and… a German boy seeks revenge on his wheelchair bound father. The stories examine human weakness, remorse, forgiveness, stifled desires, unbridled passions, displacement and homecoming. Some descriptions of sex, some strong language. 2000.
