Kirsty Logan: Things We Say in the Dark - Taschenbuch

´Gripping . . . You won´t put it down´ Sunday Telegraph

A shocking collection of dark stories, ranging from chilling contemporary fairytales to disturbing supernatural fiction.

Alone in a remote house in Iceland a woman is unnerved by her isolation another can only find respite from the clinging ghost that follows her by submerging herself in an overgrown pool. Couples wrestle with a lack of connection to their children a schoolgirl becomes obsessed with the female anatomical models in a museum and a cheery account of child´s day out is undercut by chilling footnotes.

These dark tales explore women´s fears with electrifying honesty and invention and speak to one another about female bodies, domestic claustrophobia, desire and violence.

´A brilliant collection of stories . . . All will burrow their way into your brain and not let go´ Stylist

´Shimmers with menace . . . Fans of Angela Carter and Shirley Jackson take note´ i Newspaper
