They speak about events with characters that you will find quite relatable. They are like ordinary people but with extraordinary moments. Intricacies and nuances of those moments have been sketched appropriately. For example there's this young couple who sell their house and uproot lives under mysterious circumstances.
Then there is a casual date between two friends that bring them revelation. Next a woman discovers a photograph that surely changes the course of her life.
Many such heartouching and thought provoking stories are included in this collection that will keep your engaged one after the other. I recommend it to short story enthusiasts.
