All the Rage

Zusatztext

<p><b>The dazzling new collection from the Costa Prize-winning author of<i>Day</i>and<i>The Blue Book.</i></b></p><p><i>She doesnt ever lie to him unless its for the best.</i></p><p>A husband and wife wait for a train as their relationship unspools silently around them. A woman contemplates the idea of her lover dying as she queues in a bank. An almost impossibly uncomfortably lunch culminates in a passionate kiss. In this dazzling collection of stories lies the battlefield of the heart, where characters who have suffered somehow emerge haltingly, awkwardly into the astonishment of intimacy.</p>
