Why are we attracted to certain individuals and repelled by others? Why do we fall out of contact with former friends, or fall out with them altogether? Why do we crave friendship? The answers to these questions are many and varied, and some of them reveal themselves in the stories of this collection. Not all these connections desire to lead to friendship; some are business-related. Yet, even those connections work better with friendly comments and gestures.

Produktbeschreibung
Why are we attracted to certain individuals and repelled by others? Why do we fall out of contact with former friends, or fall out with them altogether? Why do we crave friendship? The answers to these questions are many and varied, and some of them reveal themselves in the stories of this collection. Not all these connections desire to lead to friendship; some are business-related. Yet, even those connections work better with friendly comments and gestures. What happens to people who struggle with such social norms? Are they destined to remain friendless? Without realising it, Miriam Drori has been interested in this topic for many years. That's evident in the fact that these tales were written throughout her writing career. Some of them are completely or partly autobiographical, while others are purely fictional. Which ones are which is a question she declines to answer.
Autorenporträt
Miriam Drori was born and brought up in London and now lives in Tel-Aviv. With a degree in Maths and following careers in computer programming and technical writing, Miriam has been penning novels and short stories since 2003. Her five published books are all very different: a romance with a difference, a non-fiction insight into social anxiety, uplit - the sad, humorous and ultimately uplifting tale of a guy who doesn't fit in, and a murder mystery series. (Not all of those are currently available.) Miriam began writing in order to help raise awareness of social anxiety. Since then, the scope of her writing has widened, but she hasn't lost sight of her original goal.
