Strays, Ed Kavanagh's first work of fiction since the award-winning novel The Confessions of Nipper Mooney, features ten memorable stories that explore the lives of those who somehow find themselves adrift. In "The Strayaway Child" a ninety-year-old woman recalls her girlhood during the Great Depression when she was a "sad, silent little nobody"; in "The Red Merc" a boy learns deep truths about his often absent father; and in "The Wind" a Newfoundlander in a big Canadian city struggles with issues of identity. Affecting, finely crafted, and often humorous, Strays speaks, ultimately, to our desire to belong.
