Description
A stunningly inventive collection from multi award-winning author, Nina Allan. Unsettling, dark and brilliantly astute, these weird and wonderful tales take us on journeys through time and space to explore enduring questions of memory and loss. Her worlds are recognisably our own but always closer to the edge, on the slant – and sharply unexpected. These stories are an unmissable insight into a writer at the top of her game.
Advance Praise
"Nina Allan is a writer of rare talent. The Art of Space Travel addresses life’s biggest questions with such delicacy and tenderness that you won’t fear staring into the abyss."
Alma Katsu, author of The Hunger and The Deep
"Nina Allan is a great writer of the fantastic, here to remind us how weird it is to be alive. Her stories have a quiet urgency to them; they are moving and gripping and wholly themselves. Their strangeness helps us make sense of our own. This is a rare collection, to read, to ponder, to treasure."
Francesco Dimitri, author of The Book of Hidden Things
"I’m in awe of Nina Allan’s storytelling. Each richly detailed tale hints at a far wider world, and many contain stories with stories, realities within realities, warping genre boundaries yet retaining a focus on entirely believable characters and, often, the contemplation of loss. Put simply, these are some of the best modern short stories I’ve read."
Tim Major, author of Hope Island
