A.L. Barker dissects the unnerving emotions of everyday life with the sly humour and exquisite feel for language that prompted Auberon Waugh to declare that she 'writes like an angel and I love her'. In this, her tenth collection of stories, she unfolds tales of cunning, fancy, and shifting alliances. Here a young boy fosters grand illusions
a wife faces broken promises
a dutiful committee woman meets a sparky old gentleman
a witch is drowned
an intruder insinuates himself into a lonely woman's holiday
and commonplace superstition mingles effortlessly with submerged desire.
