“A murder was committed in Drapuhlid street last night, just after supper. A work-from-home hairdresser stood by the kitchen counter cutting a mango, which can be taxing on the nerves for
those who don’t expect the hard fibre core in the middle of the fruit.”

A compelling collection of micro stories where the author plays around with different voices and settings that reflect reality at surprising angles. Animals and humans react to their fates in poignant and funny stories characterised by lightness and dark humour.
