About this listen
In these six captivating short stories, meet some members of the Otto Bin Empire - the homeless men and women who gather down by the docks.
Adam, the teenage runaway, who has just one goal: to stay lost. Until life offers him a second chance.
Oskar, the elderly Polish immigrant, who to outsiders cuts a lonely figure. But every afternoon, at the giant chessboard in the park, Oskar becomes a star.
The poet Reginald, who claims he just wants to observe. Then he meets young Sally - and the scruffy kelpie who hangs around the bins - and is inspired in ways he'd never imagined.
Johnny, the generous, charismatic, habitual criminal, who is finally determined to turn his life around - if only he can stay out of jail.
Benny, the Big Issue vendor with a heart of gold, who loves nothing more than helping others.
And finally Madge, the much-loved Otto Bin matriarch. Her past has always been shrouded in secrecy, but now she's ready to share her story . . .
Tragedy and betrayal, sacrifice and salvation, redemption and hope are all on display in this inspiring collection from master storyteller Judy Nunn.
