Nine enigmatic, chilling and moving short tales in this first ever collection from David Rudkin, writer of Penda’s Fen, The Ash Tree, Artemis 81 and numerous other television and stage productions.
“Rudkin’s intense spiritual, intellectual, psychological and emotional investigations excavate in the interstices between certainties… For readers and followers of Rudkin’s singular trajectory over many decades, this diptych of story constellations, as ancient, present and prescient as anything in his oeuvre, are unexpected but truly welcome gifts, manifestations of a lifelong enquiry that is among the most charged and profound these islands have witnessed.”
From the foreword by Gareth Evans
