Murder In The Dark

Murder In The Dark

by Margaret Atwood (Author)

Synopsis

These short fictions and prose poems are beautifully bizarre: bread can no longer be thought of as wholesome comforting loaves; the pretensions of the male chef are subjected to a loght roasting; a poisonous brew is concocted by cynical five year olds; and knowing when to stop is of deadly importance in a game of Murder in the Dark. * 'Direct, unpretentious, humorous' SUNDAY TIMES
