She didn’t expect to miss them…
…but with a cat the kids left behind as her only companion, a divorced woman is blindsided and overwhelmed by empty nest syndrome.
That’s why escaping from her cramped, messy apartment in the city sounds like a welcome change.
But can moving to the family cottage with her middle-aged sisters really be a good idea?
As she battles encroaching woodland creatures and noisy vacationers, her resilience wobbles. Can she grapple with the ghosts of her messed-up past? Will she drown in a sea of old relationships? Can she find tranquility in this season of turbulence?
This fearless portrayal of life beyond the empty nest will make you laugh in recognition. Poignant and mesmerizing prose, for lovers of short fiction for women, An Empty Nest: A Summer of Stories is an ideal read for a summer’s afternoon.
