Description
When a man's obsession with solitude takes him too far, can he rely on his terrified wife to save him? Can a thief who has taken everything from you ever make amends? How many tears can one man shed? Can the world's most famous chef rely on his invisibility to save him from a violent attack?
These are some of the questions posed by Sef Hughes in Salt Water. This short story collection takes you to the curious extremities of human relationships. Fuelled by revenge, loss, death, and love, these unusual stories are sometimes haunting, at other times bizarre, and always riveting.
"Provocative short stories by a writer who has a unique mind and, for my money, a brilliant one."
A 'community-minded' murderer has a theory that will clean up society and save his clients from 'true death'. A narcissistic mother embroils her daughter in a plan to achieve immortality through gorilla acts of kindness. A long weekend in Barcelona turns into a delirious journey to the seabed.
"Salt Water and Other Short Stories is one of the most impressive debut works I've ever read by an independent author."
