David Steward, Travelling Solo (2018)

Travelling Solo is published as an A5-sized chapbook.

It is the third in a series of chapbooks of quality flash fiction published by Flash: The International Short-Short Story Press.

In an East Anglian seaside town, a woman recognises her lost son at a supermarket checkout. Outside on the marine parade, a van driver dreams of rescuing a young woman from the seedy tourist trade. Meanwhile, a few miles away, a redundant City banker has retreated to the coast in an effort to reinvent himself.

In these thirty flash fictions, paths cross, people meet and part, and always there are consequences, often misremembered or misunderstood. Funny, caustic and poignant by turns, the stories remind us that we each find our own way through the muddle of life.
