Produktbeschreibung
Dark, heartbreaking, funny, twisted, bleak, and hopeful in unequal measure: 11 imaginative short stories that take you to the curious extremities of human relationships. Ranging from the mysterious to macabre, Salt Water is a delicious short story collection of astonishing variety. Described as a 'page-turning assault on the senses' and 'the literary fiction equivalent of a deep-tissue massage', the stories unravel, twist and surprise, taking the reader to unexpected depths. "Provocative short stories by a writer who has a unique mind and, for my money, a brilliant one." Lawrence Jay Switzer, author. In this debut collection, Hughes merges beautifully crafted lyrical prose, hard-boiled dialogue and gothic imagery to disorientate, disturb and, ultimately, delight readers. ¿ Tap Tap: When a man's obsession with solitude takes him too far, can he rely on his terrified wife save him? ¿ A Survival Guide for the Unseen: Can a thief who has taken everything from you ever make amends? ¿ Once a Civil Servant: A 'community-minded' murderer has a theory that will clean up society and save his 'clients' from true death. ¿ Are You Scared? Sometimes revenge has a nasty habit of turning on you. Fuelled by revenge, loss, death, and love, this unusual collection of intriguing stories is sometimes haunting, at other times bizarre, and always riveting.
