These are slices of life that tug at one's heart, the tiny moments when we do pause and life taps us by the shoulder to share a story. The small gap between animated conversations, the fresh aroma of coffee that assail your nostrils as you inhale deeply before savouring, a glint in someone's eyes that you miss, a toothless smile you do not see, the stories and people all around us that we often pass by. This book is about the stolen moments of your time, the stories of lives around us that we miss. After all, each of us are carrying a story that unfolds when we stop a little to listen.
