The characters of these stories share a love of life wherever it is found, in people, nature or animals, whether it begins, ends or begins again, as light as a spring day or cousins chattering at a wedding, as sly as autumn light or happiness at the bottom of a bed. Built from images, sounds and smells, the stories gather around moments in which a whole life condenses and reshapes itself. The characters are not spared hardship and crisis, but they never drift far from themselves for long, knowing that life keeps beating in the house and outside while they suffer or die a little with those who leave.
