A Fleeting Glimpse is a collection of short stories, each beginning with a quick peek into someone's life and then continuing to answer the question: What is happening to this person? How does it feel for an ordinary woman to get behind the wheel of a race car? Why does a little boy go campaigning for a local election? How does collecting redeemable cans cause conflict? How do a group of elderly women decide to plan a robbery? These and other stories provide a glimpse into the moments in a person's life when a choice is made and the consequences of that choice.
