Sooner or later, we all face the pain of loss. In his collection of ten compelling stories, William Gould weaves tapestries of heartache and hope as a variety of characters from around the world bravely confront loss. It is 1974 when Peter takes leave from the Peace Corps and travels by train through Africa. As he embraces adventure filled with beautiful scenery and lively conversation with other travelers, Peter has no idea he is about to witness a horrible tragedy. After Isaac, Laura, and Jack answer an ad to help a medical student through his training, George brings a breath of fresh air into their quirky family. But when George suddenly disappears, they soon uncover a betrayal that none of them will soon forget. Thirty years after the Germans invaded Poland and bombed Cracow, Dr. Chaim Brodoff looks back on his life and the moment when his friend made a fatal decision. Loss and Other Stories shares a collection of vivid short tales about ordinary people facing unforeseen losses. 3
