Duck for Cover by Barbara Venkataraman- short stories
A wonderful book of short stories, each to enjoy over a coffee or two. The first one made me smile, a story of revenge- a dish best served cold. I don’t want to say too much so as not to spoil things. Each one of the fourteen stories may either leave you with a smile or perhaps pause a moment to think. I found myself smiling several times at the end of these. There’s life lessons and wistfulness maybe. My favourite was “ Brave New World” - which may appeal to those of a certain age. Kudos for doing something that is a little bit different- tipping a hat at life perhaps. An absorbing, entertaining read that's easy to pick up and put down. Go get a coffee and enjoy!
