The Secret Lives of People in Love

The first short story collection by award winning writer Simon Van Booy. The stories, set in NYC, Paris, Rome, Greece and the American South are atmospheric and compassionate. Love, loss, frailty, human contact and isolation are Van Booy's themes. In sweet, toned and measured prose he writes about the difficult choices we make in order to retain our humanity and about the redemptive power of love in a violent world.
