โœฆ Synopsis


Epub (my conversion)

Dark, unnerving and
wickedly funny, Patrick McGrath's acclaimed short stories deal in the
bizarre, the erotic and the unexpected. A failed writer meets an ageing
gin-queen who claims he was once visited by an angel; a little girl
finds a delirious, dying explorer from the Congo at the bottom of her
back garden; a night-club is terrorized by a strange libidinous hand;
and a young Victorian lady sails to India to find her fiance Cecil
horribly transformed...
