The Global Bestseller from the International Booker Prize-shortlisted Author of Fever Dream

CONFRONT THE DARKNESS

‘A fabulous writer. Her stories are subtle, always haunting and deeply human’ – Isabel Allende

A young mother steps into the water, determined to end her life. What will bring her back?

‘You will find yourself in the space on the other side of terror – a space of openness, fragility and strange reassurance’ – The Guardian

For a single moment, a baby is left unattended in a room of everyday dangers.

‘Just stellar – Extreme, uncanny and beautifully controlled’ – Anne Enright

In a high-rise apartment block, in a city far from home, a ghost appears.

‘A master of the uncanny’ – The New Yorker

When a lonely woman acts on a kind impulse the consequences will be dark, bold and revelatory.

‘These stories are perfect for the times we dwell inside’ – Colum McCann

From the thrice International Booker nominated author of Fever Dream and Little Eyes come six perfect terrors to change your days and haunt your dreams.

‘Mesmerizing . . . powerfully evocative and unsettling’ – Joyce Carol Oates, The New York Times
