Here is an eclectic collection of short stories from Walter Keady, told with the author’s much acknowledged and well-honed humor, penetrating with wit and irony the foibles of ordinary people in varied situations and times of life. The twenty stories in the collection range in territory from Ireland to Brazil and to the USA. Some are set in modern times and some belong to times past. The title of the book reflects its contents, for the stories are about love and justice – and at times injustice – and in many run the deceptions that people indulge in when dealing with each other in everyday life. Through all, Keady delves into the characters of his protagonists and captures their innermost thoughts and feelings.
