Recognizing the Unsung Heroes
In the quiet, dusty town of Willowbrook, nestled deep within the heart of a vast countryside, a school stood weathered by time and forgotten by many. This was where I first met Miss Eleanor, a teacher who would go on to shape not only my life but the lives of countless others. She was, in every sense of the word, an unsung hero.

Book Review: "New York Stories" edited by Diana Secker Tesdell
Everyman anthologies of short stories and poems may be fairly expensive but are usually worth the payment in order to own a lovely book of short fiction that you can keep returning to.

I have to say that so far in my explorations, Paris Stories has been one of the best-organised anthologies so far. With New York Stories I was on the fence because of the fact the stories, unlike the Paris Stories are not in time order and so, let us delve into why I sit on the fence with this particular anthology.
