Leaving is never as simple as it seems.

In Flight, a collection of quiet yet powerful literary short stories, author Amy Teegan explores the moment of departure—the instant when the familiar is left behind and the unknown stretches ahead. Whether escaping a fractured relationship, a place once called home, or the weight of old habits, each character faces a turning point that is as unsettling as it is inevitable.

Thoughtful, intimate, and deeply human, Flight captures the bittersweet tension between what we leave and what we long for. Perfect for readers of Anne Tyler, Meg Wolitzer, and Maggie Shipstead, these stories offer a poignant meditation on change, resilience, and the quiet courage it takes to step into the unknown.
