"A property developer fears that a burgeoning ibis population will prevent the construction of a high rise apartment complex; a bus stop outside a dementia care facility in Düsseldorf suffers its own identity crisis; a young man's new job requires him to pose as a woodcutter and wave at a trainload of tourists; an aging, reclusive archivist becomes locked in a strange battle of wills with a courier; a backpacker in Israel has a bizarre religious experience. In these award winning stories, David Cohen explores the oddities of human behaviour with wit, affection and startling brilliance." -- Provided by publisher The hunter -- The virus (travel notes) -- On the 345 to Aspley -- The case of Nathan Gant -- Frequently asked questions -- Woodcutter -- Carlos -- Pioneer -- Tony's farewell -- Lament of a bus stop outside the Benrath Senior Centre -- Command hooks -- Variations on a theme by the Department of Transport and Main Roads -- Washing day -- The archive -- Shrinking -- The man who looked a bit like George Harrison -- The Duke of Wellington -- Look for the silver lining.
