Demons is an anthology of ten short stories that insightfully explore, with wit and compassion, the existential challenges of life, relationships, and how the demons we all carry with us from childhood affect our ability to deal with them. From injustices of power and corruption to handling marriage breakdowns; from tensions in culturally, financially and sexually discordant relationships to love that inevitably is unrequited, and the ovreall role of trust, these keenly observed stories provide an insight, with an unerring sense of nuance and clarity, into issues we all face but rarely want to talk about. Predominantly, but not exclusively, gay in context and quirkily Australian, Demons is one of those rare anthologies that deftly treads an emotional tightrope with seemingly effortless ease. Its issues are fundamentally universal.
