"There must be moments when we let go – let go of all that we do, all that we are."

In Devotions, "one of the finest short story writers at work today" (Wendy Erskine) explores yearning for distant pasts and unknown futures.

A young Belfast theatre troupe brings their experimental production of Hamlet to New York.

On a night-flight, travelling with a violin older than the United States, a professional musician slips through time.
