Chris Beckett's thought-provoking and wide-ranging collection of
contemporary short stories is a joy to listen to, rich in detail and
texture. From stories about first love, to a man who discovers a
labyrinth beneath his house, to an angel left alone at the end of the
universe, Beckett displays both incredible range and extraordinary
subtlety as a writer. Every story is a world unto itself - each one
beautifully realized and brilliantly imagined.
