Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor:

Shortlisted for the 2013 Wales Book of the Year.

Innovative, engaging, layered with allusion and wit, these compelling tales stand together as a dazzling display of what the short story can achieve. From old England to the exotic lands of the South Pacific, from the early medieval to the contemporary, from naturalism to magic-realism, these stories showcase the talents of one of the UK s standout writers.

Singing a Man to Death, a collection of short stories, is notable for its range, sophistication and readability... A strong collection. Christopher Meredith
