The brilliant new short story collection from award-winning writer and editor Conrad Williams, featuring two brand new short stories and previously uncollected work. A devastating and profoundly moving collection that explores the tangled skein and woven bones of the human condition--the agonizing grief and beautiful terror that surrounds us all. Intricate, intimate, and shocking. A masterpiece.
