Sobre IBD

A collection of short stories - warm, funny and occasionally outrageous - designed to entertain and keep you HOOKED to the last page.The inspiration for this collection came about during a number of summers spent on the island of Malta - a small, densely populated island in the middle of the Mediterranean, fertile with intrigue. Everyone practically knows everyone - or of them, and this made it a natural place to give birth to the ideas for the stories in this book. Thanks to the great friends and the wonderful regulars who frequent Simenta, a beach concession in St Paul’s Bay, I was able to familiarise myself once more with the rich fabric of life and relations of my island of birth - and let my imagination run wild!I hope you have as much fun reading my collection of short stories as I had writing them.
