'The Ophelia Garden'.
A collection of ten (and a bit) short stories: tales of prophetic newspapers and predictive magpies, late-night hitchhikers and telephone stalkers, curiosity, resentment and fixation, childhood sweethearts and lost loves, affairs, passion, lust - and red lace panties.
These are some of my earlier stories, several set in a time before the Internet, mobile-phones, and, dare I say, e-books. Most are works of pure fiction. A couple are, to a degree, semi-autobiographical. All are intended as mere self-contained narrative whimsies, written with no other purpose than to entertain.
