Borrowed for a Short Time

Borrowed for a Short Time is a collection of linked stories which blend fiction and creative non-fiction.Based on Keevil’s experiences of moving to mid Wales in his twenties, striving – sometimes failing – to fit into a new culture, the different narratives explore themes of isolation and belonging, love and longing, and what it means to call a place home. Ranging from rural Wales to urban Vancouver, and featuring recurring characters whose lives and fates intertwine, this collection resonates with wisdom, warmth, and a rare, deceptively simple, honesty.
