From the fringes of town and country, ten tragicomic tales of environmental and personal disaster are presented in Gareth E. Rees' debut collection of short stories. A hipster who is troubled is lured by an electricity pylon. A supermarket parking lot is the setting for sinister portents. A motorway bridge turns into a father. A polar icebreaker is overrun by evil bacteria. A Gloucestershire railway station is home to a bioengineered monstrosity. The weekly trash pickup drives a man to the brink. A former squatter clings to her house on a crumbling cliff. Anglo-Saxon floodwaters thwart joyriders. B&Q is stalked by vampiric entities. The zoo is the scene of a fiery disaster.
Gareth E. Rees' first collection of short fiction delves into the lives of individuals teetering on the edge of breakdown, pushed to extremes by the consequences of late capitalism and ecological collapse. The stories explore the fragility of human existence and the devastating impact of environmental degradation on individuals and communities. Through a blend of humor, tragedy, and surrealism, Rees offers a poignant commentary on the human condition and the urgent need for change.
