SHORT STORIES
A collection of fifteen offbeat stories about the body: resurrected, falling apart, loved and abandoned.
Fay Weldon – ‘These stories are remarkable … sometimes funny, sometimes sinister…’
Emma Darwin – ‘Maria Donovan’s beautifully poised stories exploit the friction between the ordinary and the truly bizarre. The reader laughs and shivers, and finishes many with a lump in the throat.”
