Stories do not have to be long. In the space of a couple of sentences ¿ or even a page or two ¿ we can see the human heart exposed in a way that is more powerful than in a novel.In Tiny Tales Alexander McCall Smith explores romance, ambition, kindness and happiness in thirty short stories that range in length from the short to the tiny. The settings are as diverse as the characters ¿ Scotland, England, Australia, the United States ¿ combining to create a rich and always surprising selection. An Australian pope?. A persuasive cosmetic surgeon? The world¿s laziest cat. A group of students living together and getting romantically entangled? All human and animal life is here ¿ in miniature.
