The characters in [i]Abraham's Bay & Other Stories [/i]have set sail for islands in the Atlantic and Caribbean - some are restless, some curious, others are unhappy, while others are in love with roaming. Inevitable, these small boat sailors haul their personal histories along, their hubris, their failures, their frustrations. Some sail alone, others are looking to reunite, while others are parting for good. The protagonists of these eleven stories often seem to exist at the edges of the larger world - they anchor in lonely coves, make night passages across reef-strewn waters, contend with fears, inner and outer. In the title story, for example, a retired cardiologist sailing solo encounters a dangerous theological argument on a remote island, defending in a most unlikely place his religion, his choices, and finally himself. Rather than record-breaking feats of circumnavigation, the stories of [i]Abraham's Bay[/i] dramatize ordinary struggles with self and sea. The triumphs in these tales are those of living and seeing - the rewards, when they come, are the making it through.
