Described as one of the as one of the UK's finest short story
writers, Constantine intricately interweaves fictional characters
and events with the real to create new ways of seeing and
connecting our past, present and possible futures. With
extraordinary patience and precision, these stories centre on
moments, conversations, meetings that feel like small details
picked out from a larger tapestry. From the academic in Paris,
researching and processing the atrocities of the 1871 Paris
Commune, to the young biographer who tries to befriend the ailing
poet Hoelderlin, the characters in this collection are united by an
urge for connection, a desire to better know themselves - and the
world around them - to counteract a loss of hope and belonging.
