The Fahrenheit Twins and Other Stories

The Fahrenheit Twins and Other Stories

by Michel Faber (Author)

Synopsis

Deft and lyrical, fearless and human, Faber's new collection contains the finest writing to date from one of Britain's most interesting and important authors. Renowned for his pitch-perfect prose and brilliant characterisation, Faber is also loved for his mastery of wildly different styles. Capitalising on this strength, his new collection flows effortlessly from the biblical innocence and savagery of 'The Fahrenheit Twins', the unforgettable title story, to the unexpected ferocity of a betrayed wife, by way of an international conference on coconuts.
