Untold Stories follows several generations of a family from the late nineteenth through the early twenty-first century. Through it all they are searching: for the right thing to do, for acceptance, for understanding, and for love, all the while wrestling with their own consciences and flaws. The characters are Everyman; they are all of us as we try to find success and meaning in an often inexplicable life. They are the untold stories that each of us has. The book also contains short stories and poems, some fanciful but many which feature or are addressed to Lisa, who appears as both a heroine and a love object.
