Byron and Shelley

Bag om Byron and Shelley

The characters in Glenn Haybittle's first collection of short stories are all caught in moments of life that bring about a revelation of identity. A young woman who, after the war, catches sight of the guard who knocked to the ground her blind grandfather on the platform at Auschwitz. The backstory of the man accused of murdering Martin Luther King. The experience of a young girl on Kristallnacht and the subsequent tragic upheavals in her life. A dance teacher accused of sexually abusing one of his young students. A man constrained to return to his mother and look after her while she goes through dementia. A CIA operative grooming a patsy to take the blame for an assassination. Beautiful, moving and humorous, the stories are set all around the globe - spinning from Kansas City, Jerusalem, London, Venice, Prague and Hamburg to Florence, Memphis, Rome, Paris and Provence.
