Inhaltsangabe

The unwashed man woken by kookaburras at first light and his unlikely friendship with Benny, whose life on the street started when he was ten years old; the young woman who left her family home under cover of darkness to escape a brutal regime; a cranky old farmer forced to share a hospital ward with an inquisitive but desperately sick boy; the goatherd in the Judean desert who first mistook the Hebrew woman and her Palestinian companion as sisters; a father confronted by his teenage son's version of history; the soldier who held on to the image of a couple's embrace during a war that made no sense.

These are some of the characters whose life experiences we discover in When Only Today Matters and Other Stories. They will leave you with questions, sometimes make you smile, and may even lead you to think about your own place in the world.
