We are surrounded by strangers. We pass on the sidewalk with a friendly nod. We chatter about the alarming price of strawberries at the check-out. Emboldened by the anonymity of cars, we curse and slam on our horns at people we don't know. And then we quickly forget. But every stranger has a story to tell. What trauma left such a remarkable scar on the middle-aged man with the handsome side profile? What does the white-haired woman in the purple earrings, taking such careful steps with her walker, try so hard to forget? The stories inside this book are a reminder that every stranger has their tale to tell. The person you next glance at might be the love of your life, the savior you didn't know you needed, or maybe even the predator quietly watching you, planning terrible things... In this anthology of short stories and poetry, East Coast strangers are waiting to become a little more familiar.
