As with Real Life these are intense stories.
Some are contained in a single chapters, others return across a number of chapters. Although not explicitly linked they are certainly more than the sum of the parts.
Questions of identity, of struggles to be yourself in the world, about the performances we are expected to give those around us seemingly to make them comfortable, are the core of the stories.
There is a darkness, there are not “happy ever afters” offered, but a persistence of being – we go on with the struggle.
