Description
Continent is a richly imagined novel in seven stories that explores the cultures, communities and natural life of an entirely imaginary realm. Built on seams of myth and metaphor, this new continent is strange, atmospheric and yet familiar, its inhabitants known to us through their loves, hopes and struggles to make sense of life.
First published over twenty years ago, Continent marked the arrival of one of the most inventive minds at work in modern fiction. The book fuses folklore, political parable, moral fable and myth into something original and very modern, making us see our own world more clearly with its brilliant, provocative and engaging storytelling.
