'A fantastic writer.' Donald Ray Pollock
THE SHADOWS OF DEATH is the latest collection from the prize-winning author Nigel Bird (SMOKE; IN LOCO PARENTIS; DIRTY OLD TOWN AND OTHER STORIES). His brilliantly observed slices of life allow us to visit places we may not normally choose to enter and to walk a few miles in the shoes of others.
From the opening story here, set in the concentration camps of Poland in World War 2, through to the finale (the curious tale of a fortune-telling machine) you'll be compelled and maybe more than a little disturbed by what you've found.
Warning: contains curios
'A rare talent.' Allan Guthrie
