A Fleeting Glimpse is a collection of stories, each starting 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 plan a bank robbery? These and other stories provide just a glimpse into the choices people make and how those choices affect them.--Publisher.
