Description

Fiercely conflicting urges animate the characters in 'Family Impromptu', a provocative, engaging collection of short stories that challenge and entertain as they reveal the peculiar way we both create and resist family life. In these captivating stories, we encounter the tangle of emotions that accompany close relationships. Marriages expand and contract, love seeks fulfillment in a library, children dream of stalkers and kidnappings, dead dogs reconnect partners, and a cousin gets executed in Texas. Poignant, humorous, and even unsettling at times, this collection takes a frank look at the complicated yet endearing jumble of family ties as characters pursue both intimacy and independence.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
