We are all connected. There are links - like links in a chain - that join each of us, everyone to everyone else. "Degrees of Separation" is a series of short stories, each tied to the next it through one of its two characters. The book's invisible thread weaves its way across geography and time until the circle is made complete when a character from the first story appears again in the final one. But each story is also a narrative about separation in its own right; a wife from a husband, a son from a father, a friend from a friend. "Degrees of Separation" explores what it means to be apart, and considers the things that can divide us - or potentially keep us together.
