Some dwell on moral gray areas. Other articles concern major issues facing our nation today.

Then they can lay the book aside without feeling they are caught in the middle of something with a need to continue. One reader wrote: “This is writing that focuses on the seemingly simple pleasures, frustrations, quandaries and confl icts in life. But just because it’s presented in a simple, accessible, straightforward manner, doesn’t mean it doesn’t run deep. “I think anyone can relate to the author’s reactions and insights which color the vignettes, and upon refl ection, they open a door to the complex dynamics that lie beneath. They provide insight and food for thought that keep popping up in your mind, long after you’ve read what seemed like a simple enough story. Reading them a second time, you realize what a wealth of substance is presented in what you thought was a humble package.”
