'Mislaid' is set in Virginia in 1966. The motionless depths of the lake outside Stillwater College are being ruffled. Lee, a blue-blooded poet and professor, is determinedly fondling Peggy, an ingenue freshman with literary pretensions, in his canoe. So begins a long affair but the two are mismatched from the start. The story that follows rocks the boat in every sense. 'The Wallcreeper' is set in Interlaken, Berne, in the 21st century. Several things happen after the car hits the rock. Tiff ceases to be pregnant. Stephen captures, like, the most wonderful bird - fleet, stealthy, and beautiful - a real 'lifer'. And the wallcreeper, the wallcreeper says 'twee'. The Wallcreeper is nothing more than a portrait of marriage, complete with all its requisite highs and lows.
