Nasty Stories and a Fable with a Happy Ending

A collection of psychological stories set in England and The Bahamas and about warped characters in a variety of frustrating situations: a satyr in pursuit of lost pleasures; a man who thinks he's a genius; an older woman hungry for a younger man; a couple fighting over the custody of their son and a control freak who exploits a friend for personal ambition. The title of the fable, Tommy's Adventures in His Search for Happiness, says it all.
