These are the stories of sorrow and hope. Of kindness and fear. A troubled alcoholic accidentally ends up in heaven. A young girl falls in love with her molester. A celebrity's girlfriend hides her bruises with diamonds and designer clothes. A woman loses sight of her husband as she hesitantly attempts to cross the Mexican/American border. These are the stories of love and loss. Of dreams and regrets in cities that refuse to shine their light on the forlorn faces of the down-trodden and dispossessed. The Story of Babalou Roy is a brilliantly original, deft and sometimes darkly funny collection of short stories.
