This sharp, character‑driven collection of literary fiction presents Bennett’s account of Miss Shepherd, the eccentric woman who lived in a van on his driveway for years, and pairs it with three additional stories that uncover human frailty, social absurdity and the quiet tensions of ordinary lives. The volume details his wit and observational precision, creating a portrait of compassion, intrusion and the uneasy boundaries between privacy and responsibility.
