The Pier Falls

Popis:

'The real redemption in these superbly gripping stories comes from their canny human detail, and the vivid, unsettling clarity they bring to our lives.´ Sunday Times



'He writes with the craft of Julian Barnes or, even, Truman Capote.´ The Times



An expedition to Mars goes terribly wrong.



A seaside pier collapses.



A thirty-stone man is confined to his living room.



One woman is abandoned on a tiny island in the middle of the ocean.



Another woman is saved from drowning.



Two boys discover a gun in a shoebox.



A group of explorers find a cave of unimaginable size deep in the Amazon jungle.



A man shoots a stranger in the chest on Christmas Eve.



In this first collection of stories by the author of The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time Mark Haddon demonstrates two things: first that he is a master of the short form (several of the stories have been longlisted for prizes), second that his imagination is even darker than we had thought.
