**AVAILABLE FOR PRE-ORDER NOW** 'Full of depth. . . wonderful
writing.' SARAH HALL 'Dazzlingly good. . . crackling with
playfulness and intelligence.' DANIELLE McLAUGHLIN 'Precise,
surreal and emotionally devastating' LUCY CALDWELL 'How do you know
this is all real and happening? How can you be sure you haven't
already died in the earthquake and are just living in the
afterlife?' In her highly anticipated English-language debut, Yan
Ge explores isolation in nine iridescent, witty and wondrous tales.
Both contemporary and ancient, real and surreal, the stories in
Elsewhere range from China to Dublin to London and Stockholm. From
a group of writers lounging on the edge of a disaster zone to a
mandarin ostracised from his old court trying to avoid
assassination, and from a woman who inexplicably loses her voice to
a couple who meet all too fleetingly at a cinema in Dublin, these
are strange and beguiling stories of dispossession, longing and the
diasporic experience. 'Glorious' MIA GALLAGHER 'A gripping,
stunning work, worldly and otherworldly.' MADELEINE THIEN 'Equal
parts shimmering wit and startling emotional depth.' JEREMY TIAN
'One of the most surprising writers I've read in recent years. . .
fantastic.' MATT BELL
