Reviews

"Reasserts and cherishes the short story form's ingrained oddness, its unique kind of drama and its potential to surprise." --Independent on Sunday "A treasure trove....From the first earth-shattering story 'Testicular Cancer vs The Behemoth, ' in which terminal illness collides with a literally world-smashing monster, to the enigmatic 'Road, ' where a man struggles for help with a mysterious briefcase, this book is a true rarity." --Aethetica Magazine "Takes readers on nail-biting adventures... vital and imaginative." --Big Issue
