Though Sara Maitland's interests are as varied as the people who inhabit her stories, there is a common theme to this work that extols risk taking over safety. Acrobats, women warriors, a girl who wants to become a garden, a long-distance runner, housewives and mothers, and a reformed sixteenth-century conquistador are among the characters revealed in this collection. Familiar names from literature - Gretel, Eurydice of the green fields, the shepherd Prince Endymion, Lady Artemis - commingle with contemporary characters called David, Meg, and Liz, who desperately seek love and fulfillment and frequently have babies when they can't get what they want. Close by is the echo of Mary Magdalene, teaching us about endurance and perseverance in a voice rich with the experiences of the sex object and the "true-love dichotomy."
Sara Maitland is a British writer and academic. An accomplished novelist, she is also known for her short stories. Her work has a magic realist tendency.

She is a Roman Catholic, and religion is another theme in much of her work.
