'The question was simple: if you knew only one of your stories would survive you, which would you choose?

'Twenty-eight authors have submitted their best-loved stories to create a fascinating collection of short stories about a diverse range of people trying to make sense of a world where goodness is not always apparent.

'Remarkably, for all the difficulties, sadness, uncertainty, and confusion facing the people in these stories, this collection is one of triumph, of hope, and of love for the wild variety that defines everyday humanity.'
