Life is composed of moments whose importance we tend to underestimate. Within these moments, however, lifelong impressions are formed, unkind words are spoken and people fall in love. In this collection of stories and novellas, Eleanore E. Smith examines the dark side of the human psyche and shines her light upon the hidden regions that lie beneath the surface of consciousness. The author reveals places we may not know exist, and she writes of disappointment, unrealistic expectation and of lives, like plastic flowers, that act as a substitute.
