    High Noon at Starbucks is an eloquent and compelling exploration of human particularity in diverse cultural settings: the author's hometown of Melbourne, Trumpite Florida, post-handover Hong Kong, and Switzerland. Its themes include mid-life experience, identity, mental and physical illness, gender, colonialism and the Holocaust. Whether comic, tragic or tragicomic, these stories are pervasively concerned with the complexities of moral life. Their historical reach includes imaginative encounters with classics of nineteenth century fiction. Sophisticated but accessible, High Noon at Starbucks reminds us that fictional realism remains very much a going concern."These engrossing stories make for marvellous reading." - Hermina Burns, author of Bite of the Bluebottle and Edging Them Out

    If you want to be entertained and yet stretched, then Twisted Journeys is the book for you.Albert Trajstman has again shown his mastery of the novella in this new collection of three new works. Diverse and ambitious, the stories take us to faraway places and strange situations. Each novella twists and turns in unexpected directions, changes shape and weaves strands together.Journeys of a Prodigal Son is a romp set in the sixteenth century, travelling with the story's insensitive protagonist on a journey through Renaissance Italy. He is shipwrecked and meets a Venetian merchant and his family, a duchessa, a Jewish librarian at the University of Bologna and a wise sophisticated Turk. Liberally laced with sexual adventures, the story takes us to exotic settings and unexpected endings.Journey to Find out What Happened concerns a scam perpetrated against the US army in post-war Paris. The cast includes a world-weary journalist, a shady lawyer, an enigmatic US soldier and a number of bit players. Follow the journalist as he tries to find out what really happened. It's a mystery in the best tradition of Graham Greene's The Third Man.Finally, My Journey with the Nixons and Others is a bitter-sweet story set in Melbourne from the 1960s to the present, a story of growing up in the company of a bizarre family called the Nixons. Sad and humorous in turns, it is told in an episodic fashion.Enjoy a master storyteller who takes you to unexpected places!
