This remarkable collection of short stories delves into the lives of people facing moments of crisis and change. Taking their inspiration from the worlds of science and medicine, these stories illuminate the familiar and frightening ways in which people caught between different cultures and ideas - and learning to better understand themselves, their pasts and their families . . .

These stories of love, loss and redemption show that we can triumph over circumstances and learn to go on with our lives.

An American scientist, lecturing on cholera in Bombay, visits a makeshift hospital and makes a decision that will change her life for ever. A carpenter sits in the Australian beach house he has built for his adored wife, hearing strange noises in the walls.

Spanning the globe, these vivid and compelling tales reveal people caught between past and present, between different cultures, and between what they know and what they feel. This is an original and exciting debut that speaks of who and what we are in a changing world.
