Michel Faber's first collection of short stories reveals an extraordinarily vivid imagination, a deep love of language and an adventurous versatility. Playful, yet profoundly moving, wickedly satirical yet humane, these tales never fail to strike unexpected chords.

I didn't think I was going to finish this on, it has certainly taken me some time. The stories are weird and wacky but I just didn't ‘get' a lot of them, I kept expecting some kind of punchline that just didn't come. Entertaining but I don't think I would read them again. I much prefer his novels.
