Requirements: ePUB/MOBI/AZW3 Reader, 1.1 MB
Overview: A collection of short stories populated with heroes great and small, outsiders and inmates, disfigured, disenchanted, and quietly triumphant.
Ten short stories examine the courage and loneliness of misfits in a society that demands conformity. In "Faith," an emotionally troubled girl attaches herself to a vulnerable psychologist. In "Superstitions," a small child takes on responsibility for her younger, epileptic brother. "Understanding" makes us look at an very old woman through the eyes of her ancient poodle. Other characters include a giant woman in a small town, residents of a shelter for disturbed adolescents, a pair of recovering alcoholics. La Chapelle writes with humor, and her compassion is contagious.
