A Sky Populated by Tongues

Patrick Frost's collection of short stories, A Sky Populated by Tongues, is constantly surprising. The settings seem familiar enough - until some twist throws you off balance. There's a strange visitor in the kitchen. Will he ever move? A sinister meal on the island bench in snow country. And if you don't do as your host advises on the open garden tour, what exactly are the consequences?

When what you decide to wear to work to shake things up a bit doesn't have the impact you had imagined, these bizarre moments of magic realism send us hurtling into a strange new world. Funny, grotesque and unforgettable.
