'The stories of Renate Yates are admired for their exploration of the foibles, frailties and expectations of people. They are beautifully crafted and perceptive.
Renate Yates is also the author of three novels and the translation of an account written by her father Ernst Raubitschek of his journey to and imprisonment in the Dachau Concentration camp: By Train To Dachau.
Her short stories have been published in many literary journals and compilations, and this updated collection contains many new stories, which are most welcome.' (Publication Summary)
