Description
A collection of thought-provoking short stories by Kate Atkinson, exploring the world we think we know while offering a vision of another reality lurking just beneath the surface of our consciousness.
These stories posit a skewed reality glimpsed out of the corner of an eye, where the worlds of material existence and imagination collide, and anything is possible. With a vibrant, contemporary tone, they are refreshingly original and plausibly implausible.
Not the End of the World is a timely meditation on mythology and transformation, demonstrating Kate Atkinson to be one of the most inventive and entertaining of modern writers.
