Angels, devils, goddesses, and the nagging doubts that haunt us all. The ramblings of a man who thinks he's seen an angel. A drunken commentary on a night out on the town. A goddess snatching a holidaymaker down to the underworld. A desperate husband seeking help for his dying wife. A man stuck down a manhole after his stag do. The tell-all story of the ups and downs of a global pop band. An appeal to His Satanic Majesty. These are just a few of the eclectic cast of characters and stories assembled by L. A. Davenport as he explores the meaning of life in the modern world and the frailties that we all have to face, woven through with finely drawn observations and a strong sense of the absurd.
