In some ways, the people in these stories are a tribe - a\nmodern, urban tribe - which does not fully recognise itself as\nsuch. Some of the people are central members of the tribe while\nothers are hermits who live on the fringe. The shared environment\nis both internal - anxieties, pleasures and confusions - and\nexternal - the houses, streets, hotels and experiences. The central\ndilemma is that of giving birth, of creating new life. The\nexperiences of the inner city ambience are shown through stories of\ngrowing up, leaving home, coming to the city from the country, or\nreturning there; first love affairs, hetero- or homosexual; and\nfinding a peer group, a life style, an ideology, and the\nanti-ideology of Libertarianism.
