"In this virtuoso performance, Pauline Melville shows us a world in upheaval, and reminds us that that’s where we live." Salman Rushdie
A Nobel literature laureate struggles to write a convincing suicide note. In a surreal waiting room Anna Karenina and Emma Bovary exchange confidences. A scientist discovers the appalling truth about boyhood acquaintances. These stories alight in Russia, Europe, the Caribbean and the Americas, fables that are unpredictable, sometimes poignant and often
hilarious.
