In this companion short story collection to the highly successful and award-winning collection, Town , young people are linked in very different ways--through chance meetings, found objects, social connections, the civil disobedience of the shadowy Poet, and the streets of a city. This place has no name, but any reader who has ever lived in a city will find it immediately familiar. It is a striking collection of connected stories that reflects the young peoples' lives and those of the people they pass each day.
