Cage Life, by Karin Cox, is a beautifully written book comprised of two short stories. The first story is about a young mom who feels like a prisoner in her own home after having a child and leaving her job and the second centers around an old person Basil and his love for a younger woman. It's a short story.
I must say Karin Cox has done an excellent job in expressing various human emotions in just few words.I would certainly recommend this book.
