Description
The Safety of Objects by A. M. Homes is a collection of short stories that explore the darker side of human relationships and desires. These tales are both unsettling and strangely believable, often veering into the absurd with a dark sense of humour. They feature characters in increasingly bizarre situations, from a girl's obsession with her Barbie doll to a couple's descent into chaos while their children are in care. Through its unique blend of the surreal and the disturbing, The Safety of Objects offers a thought-provoking and unflinching look at the complexities of human nature.
