Four compelling and visceral tales – very different in their settings and characters, but alike in their vividness and intensity. Crack is about the narrator’s peculiar encounter with a man he meets smoking crack-cocaine in a phone box. The Prototype is a send-up to late nineteenth-century gothic horror and tells the story of a woman’s mayfly resurrection. Our Fathers takes place on the day after the UK EU referendum and it explores the impacts this event had on many people’s personal lives. The final story, Etchings on a Stone Wall, is a surreal tale about four people imprisoned in a monolithic structure, who are taunted by the sunlight that shines down from above the wall.Bart Lambert’s debut short story collection is an energetic and vibrant read, written in a style that is witty, suspenseful and sometimes even shocking.
