Long Thin Strands Margaret A Allis

A collection of connected stories set in the landscape and culture of the small South Pacific nation of New Zealand (Aotearoa), where it is common for lives to overlap. The interlinked stories in Long Thin Strands present recurring settings and reappearing characters whose lives and challenges cover diverse issues such as loneliness and grief, abuse and injustice, disability and identity. Themes of hope, courage and kindness as means of healing are an integral part of this interwoven narrative.
