Synopsis

Some stories are born from imagination. Others are carved out of lived truth. What We Chose to Keep is a powerful collection of short stories and short novellas about devotion, survival, and the quiet kind of love that holds when everything else collapses. Across war-torn streets, fractured families, fleeting encounters, and lifelong vows, Joseph Portnoj Gaj writes with a voice that is both intimate and unflinching-where tenderness and pain share the same page, and every ending leaves a mark. Inside these pages you will find: A soldier returning home to an imperfect soup that tastes like protection. A child selling chewing gum with dignity sharper than poverty. A man trapped in a world that erased his own name. Ten minutes inside a city where survival depends on discipline and nerve. A love found in the middle of grief. Two engagement rings that become an oath. And an epilogue that asks the only question that matters: When everything is taken... what remains? These are not just stories about hardship. They are stories about what people refuse to lose: memory, loyalty, faith, and love- not as a feeling, but as a decision. If you find tenderness here, keep it. If you find pain, know you're not alone. And if you find hope, let it stay with you.
