Goodbye Spring Vale and Schools Out for Summer are the stories of his naive teenage years and failure through the education system.

In Stella and Farah Johnny Wallman recalls his time living in Israel and the some of the dilemas and paradoxes serving in the Israeli army.

The collection ends with A New Life on the Lake, previously unpublished Johnny Wallman tells of where quite often he really would like to be.
