The night invites strange happenings, strange meetings, strange
thoughts. A mother feeding her baby hears sounds in the city around her.
A grieving widow encounters an injured jellyfish on a deserted beach. A
young woman can't shake the image of a dying hare she finds at the side
of the road. A dairy farmer hears the herd bellow with fear at night.
Collected here are stories that illuminate nocturnal meetings between
humans and other animals in the eagerly anticipated first collection of
short fiction from acclaimed author, Naomi Booth.
