'Armfield is an enormous, gut-wrenching talent.' Daisy Johnson, author of Everything Under'salt slow is exemplary. A distinct new gothic, melancholy, powerful and poised.' China Mieville, author of The City & The CityThis collection of short stories is about women and their experiences in society, about bodies and the bodily, mapping the skin and bones of its characters through their experiences of isolation, obsession and love. Throughout the collection, women become insects, men turn to stone, a city becomes insomniac and bodies are picked apart to make up better ones. The mundane worlds of schools and sea side towns are invaded and transformed, creating a landscape which is constantly shifting to hold on to the bodies of its inhabitants. Blending the mythic and the gothic, the collection considers characters in motion - turning away, turning back or simply turning into something new.From Julia Armfield, the winner of The White Review Short Story Prize 2018, Salt Slow is an extraordinary collection of short stories that are sure to dazzle and shock.
