In his debut collection of short stories, Robert Sheehan disappears into characters, challenging the complacencies of everyday experience, often from entirely unexpected angles. Informed by the author's peripatetic life, Disappearing Act reflects on the absurdity of human behavior. Sheehan delves deep into his characters' streams of self-talk and self-imposed delusions, and explores the dark impulses that lurk below the shiny surfaces of many outwardly normal lives. Dark, provocative and often humourous, the collection will stay with the reader long after the book is finished.
