In sharply evoked settings that range from the wilds of Northern Greece to the beaches of Cape Cod these intensely dramatic tales chart the metamorphoses of their characters as they fall prey to the gamut of human passions. The lives in them seethe with love hate desire fear tender corruption and cruel idealism. They rise to unexpected heights of decency stumble into comic or tragic folly they throw themselves open to lust longing paranoia - but they are always recognisably illuminatingly our lives. Winner of the BBC National Short Story Award.
