Tilting Towards Joy
Tilting Towards Joy | Margaret MacPherson
1 post
Tilting Towards Joy is a collection of interconnected stories that trace the delicate threads binding lives across continents and through time. Set against the backdrop of rural France, each story follows familiar characters through unfamiliar terrain, offering insight into how we navigate new experiences, unexpected conflicts, and shifting relationships. Among the characters we meet are an empty-nest couple who trade their Edmonton home for a farmhouse in rural France; a young girl who exacts revenge on her siblings by serving an unconventional “dessert”; a woman who after being scammed chooses to view the situation with hope rather than pessimism; visiting friends who show their true colours; and siblings hurriedly preparing for a wildfire evacuation. Each story, grounded in a moment of personal reckoning, pulses with a sense of yearning—tilting always toward the possibility of joy, even as it remains just out of reach.
