Böcker av David Gaffney

Haunting and funny stories that explore the theme of town versus country with a dark humour and a surreal spin.

In stories that are laugh-out-loud funny, cringingly weird and desperately sad, Gaffney introduces the possibility of momentary actions that change everything; a swimming man sees a hundred glass eyes at the bottom of a river; and a comedian decides to express himself through the medium of smell.

Succinct in length and vast in imagination, Gaffney's micro stories are bizarre and witty slices of condensed reality. Frequently hilarious and often poignant, they leave an after taste that is resonant, dark and clingy. They sometimes seem to glow from the inside with their own awful secrets.

Aromabingo is the much aniticipated sequel to Gaffney's highly-acclaimed `Sawn-off Tales', offering yet more weird, edgy, ultra-short stories, together with several longer ones - the perfect opportunity to spend more time inside the baffling, hilarious and sometimes moving world David Gaffney paints for us.
