'Askildsen's dry, absurd humour is not unlike that of Beckett...
His short stories are packed with irony, and the dialogue is sharp
and expressive' TLS Spare, taut and told with flashes of
pitch-black humour, the short stories of Norwegian master Kjell
Askildsen capture all the strangeness of modern existence. In this
selection of tales, spanning the whole of his brilliant career,
unnerving encounters occur, lonely individuals try to connect,
families and relationships are fractured, and we are confronted by
the fragility and absurdity of life. 'Full of compelling
strangeness. Lives surge through a few brittle pages, suppressed
loves and resentments threaten to erupt' Independent
