What shapes the way we see ourselves?An administrator is forced into early retirement, a busy doctor needs a break. A girl discovers her sexuality, an older man explores a new direction for his. An estate agent seeks adventure beyond marriage, a photojournalist retreats from an overwhelming world. A woman reduces her carbon footprint, a woman embarks on a transatlantic affair. A widow refuses to let her past trauma become public property, another marks her husband's passing in style.Thought-provoking, playful and poignant, these 42 short stories address identity from different angles, examining the characters' sense of self at various points in their lives. What does it mean to be a partner, parent, child, sibling, friend? How important is work, culture, race, religion, nationality, class? Does our body, sexuality, gender or age determine who we are?Is identity a given or can we choose the someone we become?
