W.9. & Other Lives

More about the book

W9 & Other Lives spans the world-from Cuba to Connemara, from the Mediterranean.The lives of the characters are as broad as the settings. The characters depicted in these stories are lonely, rootless, and quite often uncertain about what they want or how they would get what they want if only they knew what it was... Yet the collection also celebrates how people endure, begin again and refuse to be crushed by chance and circumstance.First published in 1996 and now reprinted with corrections.
