Les quatorze nouvelles qui composent le recueil Stations, première œuvre de fiction de Nick Mulgrew, s’intéressent aux angoisses et aux paradoxes de la jeunesse. Ancrées en Afrique du Sud, sur la côte, ces histoires mettent en scène des personnages issus de toutes les sphères de la société. Étudiant·e·s ou salarié·e·s, ces jeunes vivent dans un monde cosmopolite, bigarré, écartelé entre un passé innommable et un présent éclaté et stimulant.
