Citizen/Alien

This book is a collection of short stories, based on the author's own life experiences, taking us on a far-reaching journey across continents and cultures. It introduces us to people who have hugely varied lives but that have more in common than first impressions might create. We meet people who are united by love, compassion, empathy, understanding and hope. The author uses her creative skills to share these people and their stories with us, with the intent of encouraging the idea that, regardless of circumstances, holding onto hope will propel us forward and open us up to being able to celebrate the wonderful gift of life and that the hand we are dealt with can be played with passion and optimism.
