The latest work from Chris Bradbury drives forward his need to communicate, his desire, through words, to 'cast out bad spirits' and 'cleanse his soul'. His self-confessed selfishness as a writer conflicts with his presentation of life as fragile, full of anger and waste and of the need to talk to each other, before we end up in desperate isolation with nothing to give and even less to take. A collection of short stories and poems, Communique presents life and death in all its shades and dares the reader to evaluate their own place in the world. cbradbury.co.uk"
