Strange, vivid and sublime. It’s easy to imagine this book as a tv anthology, something like an early season of Black Mirror, maybe a little lofty at parts, but leaving you with a lovely little shiver regardless. Not every experimentation culminated into something spectacular, but some of these stories will stay with me for a while.
