Ray Connolly has always loved the discipline of the short story. With no space to explain too much, the short story can capture the moments which best reflect the human condition.
In this collection we meet a lonely bar pianist/teacher, who, when accidentally injured, spends a few days at an out of season English Riviera hotel. There he is befriended by an enigmatic young woman who asks him to teach her to play the piano…
Another story is about the family man who, having been made redundant, needs a job, any job, to help him provide for his family over Christmas. Then there’s the widower who sets out to trace a girl he met fifty years earlier at Liverpool’s Cavern Club. And the young Indian computer wizard who falls in love with a beautiful university professor when he is employed to repair her laptop.
These, and several other stories, people the pages of Jenny Kissed Me.
