Description
Pond is a striking collection of stories about a woman's life on the edge of a coastal town. Her world is one of broken bowls, belligerent cows, and swanky aubergines, where the physical world becomes increasingly unsettling and familiar. As she navigates her relationship with her surroundings, the boundaries between reality and the unknown begin to blur. The stories are both darkly funny and deeply moving, as the woman's desire for solitude is tempered by a restlessness that cannot be contained. Claire-Louise Bennett's writing is startlingly original, effortlessly slipping between worlds to create a sense of boundless possibility. This is a deeply moving and thought-provoking collection that explores the complexities of human desire and the allure of solitude.
