Tough, Tough Toys for Tough, Tough Boys

by WillSelf (Author)

Synopsis

Will Self's third collection of short stories takes his readers straight into the distorting hall-of-mirrors that is his fictional world. In one story a Londoner finds his house underpinned by an enormous rock of crack cocaine; in another, a misanthrope learns that flies have feelings. 'It delivers what its title promises ...This guy is a massive talent' - Steve Grant, Time Out . 'A superb new slice of contemporary Gothic' - Independent on Sunday .
