Awaiting news of her son gone missing during World War II, a mother recalls his childhood victory over polio. A young woman weighs the promise of John Kennedy’s new frontier against the reality of her best friend’s breakdown. An extramarital affair propels a suburban mother to awaken to true desire on the eve of the Apollo 11 space walk. The discovery of an abandoned infant in a dumpster unites a mother, daughter, and granddaughter in startling ways. In her wry and wrenching debut collection of linked short stories, Safe Haven, Susan Dugan inhabits the lives of three generations of American women seeking refuge from the harsh realities of their moments in time and finding it at last where they forgot to look; patiently waiting in their own backyards.

Susan Dugan, has written a wonderful book of shorts stories about women. Having read her previous book Extraordinary Ordinary Forgiveness, I was intrigued with her new collection of short stories and she didn't disappoint. Each story is unique, yet tied together. Very empowering for women. A Great, Great Read! ( )
