What happens when we leave the places we're from? What do we lose, and who do we become, and what parts of our pasts are unshakeable? Linda Mannheim's second short story collection focuses on people who have relocated – both voluntarily and involuntarily. Opening with Miami-set political thriller, 'Noir', this exquisitely rendered set of stories will leave you reeling. This Way to Departures is a deeply affecting portrait of American society and the constant search for a place to call 'home'.
