Details
This selection of fiction marks the centenary of Rhys Davies' birth and includes some of his best work.
Dark, witty, and acutely observed, these finely-crafted stories put small-town life under the microscope. In his unique and memorable style, Davies examines the strange games that people play. He paints vivid portraits of the human condition.

Rhys Davies is a first-class writer and every short story... a novel in itself. - John Betjeman, The Daily Telegraph
Gently wrapped, these stylish perceptive tales have centres as hard as steel, and are all the better for it. - The Guardian
Rhys Davies' characters all walk straight out of the page and hold one with an almost physical attraction. - The Times
