Story
In these stunning stories and one "half truth" (a semi-fictional meditation on the experience of being an immigrant) we meet a swimming instructor determined to reenact John Cheever's iconic short story "The Swimmer" in the pools of Mumbai; a famous Indian chef who breaks down on a New York talk show; a gangster's wife who believes a penguin at the Mumbai zoo is the reincarnation of her lost child; an illegal immigrant in Vancouver who plays a fateful game of cricket; and a kindly sweets-shop owner whose hope for a new life in Canada leads to a terrible choice.

Story
In this new community where residents are down on their luck but rich in humour and escape plans, Lara navigates what it means to be the Black daughter of a Russian mother and begins to wonder what a life beyond Yevgenia’s orbit—her insistence on reading only the right kind of books (Nietzsche, Dostoyevsky) and having the right kind of relationships (casual, with lots of sex)—might look like.

Story
« Au revoir mes enfants ! Quand vous partez, ne vous retournez pas… » Avec ces derniers mots de leur mère, deux petites filles, Marguerite et sa sœur aînée, vont commencer une longue errance qui durera deux ans. Munies d’une nouvelle identité, elles doivent se couper de tout ce qui constitue leur univers familier. Menées de fermes en couvents, elles apprennent à se taire, à faire semblant, à mentir, à s’adapter et surtout à garder espoir, envers et contre tout.

Story
Julia has landed a fresh start at an up-and-coming city restaurant. "Imagine that," says her mother. "I’m imagining." Her ex-boyfriend Nick is flirting with sobriety and nobody else. Did you know that adults his age are more likely to live with their parents than with a romantic partner? Life should have started to take shape by now—but instead we’re trying on new versions of ourselves, swiping left and right, searching for a good answer to the question "What do you do?"

Story
London, 1976. In the thick of a record-breaking heatwave, Gretta Riordan's newly-retired husband has cleaned out his bank account and vanished. Now, for the first time in years, the three Riordan children are converging on their childhood home: Michael Francis, a history teacher whose marriage is failing; Monica, with two stepdaughters who despise her and an ugly secret that has driven a wedge between her and the little sister she once adored; and Aoife (pronounced EE-fah), the youngest, whose new life in Manhattan is elaborately arranged to conceal her illiteracy.
