'Eric has been thinking about his life and why he has always lived it on the safe side and with such quiet containment. While on holidays with his elderly but seemingly more life-embracing mother, he begins to explore these thoughts further – of how his extensive travels have given him the chance to experience the power of fate and lost opportunities.

What happens when this inner turmoil reaches a climax?'

'Easy-going Orley has until recently enjoyed a casual lifestyle, running an ageing caravan park in a less than salubrious resort town, surrounded by a family he loves and on whom he has largely depended. But nothing ever stays the same. When those foundations that have been his world are threatened with worsening health issues and even loss, Orley experiences a growing sense of anxiety, powerlessness, loneliness and frustration.'

'Marjorie Lewis-Jones' recommends the short stories of Australian author Mark O’Flynn: ‘His short stories simmer with suburban uneasiness, dislocation and melancholy, and voices that are both familiar and eccentric. They also tap the rich vein of comedy that lurks beneath life’s awkward and painful moments…’
