Three novellas brought to you by the author of Hexpectations. Remember the Gedren? Neither do I! But one American family certainly will. A young man decides to fall on his sword for the love of his family. Two women take a bus journey across America and discover the American Dream. Humour, pathos and ridiculous caricatures abound in these entertaining---yet disturbingly plausible---satires.

From the author of Hexpectations comes an up-ended shoebox and from it a selection of poems written in his early teens. The point where hope and (personal)history might be said to rhyme..... Mercifully free of hormonal ructions, surly know-it-all attitudes, or underage drunken scrawl on the back of a cigarette box. (Warning: this product may contain rhyming couplets)
