Pictures

Pictures is Lois Simmie's second short story collection. A longing for tranquillity and a compassion for human beings - the impatient little girl, the anxious secretary, the desolate alcoholic - suffuse these stories. With the same warmth and humour of her immensely popular novel, They Shouldn't Make You Promise That , Lois Simmie shows us Pictures that will make us laugh and make us cry, make us glad to be alive.
