Descriere

Drawing on the banality and comic potential of modern life, this collection of short stories "brilliantly explores the fine line between sanity and insanity, hitting uncomfortably close to home" ("USA Today").

Recenzii

'Try these short stories which, at their best, have a satiric focus and punch absent from the rest of the contemporary scene'
'A beautiful collection of Nathaniel West-ish tales which manage to combine the quirky stylistic devices which we know and love from The Quantity Theory of Insanity ... with a chilling moral diagnosis of all that is wrong with our society'
'A perversely colourful, delightful triumph'
'The stories are at times funny, at times bizarre, at times caustic, but always readable'
'The stories are at times funny, at times bizarre, at times caustic, but always readable'
