Full description for Collected Stories

• Comprising stories from her debut collection, "Blood", and the critically acclaimed "Where You Find It" - this collection presents some of the best known and most loved works by one of Scotland's 'most gifted and original writers' - "Times Literary Supplement". Each sharply observed, savagely accurate and brilliantly realised - the stories offer revelatory glimpses into everyday lives - from an unwelcome act of kindness at a bus stop, an evening walk across a London bridge, a welcome but uncomfortable summer break to a brutal lesson in trust. Here also are unflinching portrayals of relationships: the struggle to love against the odds, the overpowering yearning to communicate, and the extraordinary epiphanies where the world falls away leaving only the lovers. These are painstakingly crafted stories: engaging, funny and terrifyingly true, from a master of the form.
