Judith Lawrence brings us a book of short stories in three parts. Part One, Welsh Cakes, has nine stories about a Welsh girl named Gwen. The stories are poignant with an underlying hint of sadness. They take us from the time she is six years old, through the heart-breaking sickness and death of her mother, and into her adulthood when she enters a convent. Part Two consists of eight short stories with themes varying from romance to attempted murder, with protagonists both old and young in age, some male and some female. Part Three has twenty-four postcard and short-short stories, which bring the reader into the center of each tale quickly and to endings that are often surprising. This is a great book for anyone who likes to while away an hour or two with a good read, and makes an excellent gift for a relative, friend or oneself.
