A collection of stories with a novel at it's centre - the story of Anthony, a bereaved father struggling to grieve. A collection of hope, love, grief, sorrow and joy.
Love, grief, hope, sorrow and joy – the consequences of living that help us to learn and confront truths.
This is a collection of stories where impressionable boys and lovers, fathers and mothers, priests, con-men and angels come alive; stories of people and moments to care for and recognise. Told with compassion and care, these are tales of living and dying from an author who hopes you will bring them to life by knowing the people within. The collection is linked by characters and events. At their core is ‘Sunrises’, in which Anthony grieves following the death of his daughter and struggles to know where to turn for his own peace and truth. ‘Sunrises’ is supported by stories depicting critical episodes from Anthony’s life and the lives of those around him; how he is shaped by the choices and actions of others and how they influence his present and future.
