A Matter Of Death And
Life
£9.00
Marital troubles? Sick of life? Suicide the answer? Why not get yourself a contract killer? Nothing easier, provided you communicate only by phone & box number. You give him your photograph, specify when & in which caf- to find you, then sit back & prepare to die. Murdered, you will be of greater interest than ever you were in life. More to him than met the eye will be the judgment. Our perpetually glum hero meticulously plans his own demise, expect for one detail: if he suddenly decides he wants to live, what then? This darkly funny tale is Kurkov on top form. ...

A Map Of The World

Because Alice and Howard Goodwin run a small dairy farm in the midst of encroaching suburbia, and because their whimsical ways betray their city origins, they are shunned as 'that hippie couple', outsiders in the small Midwestern town of Prairie Center. Nevertheless, they feel that they and their two daughters are living in a self-made paradise.

But Alice has always believed that all it would take to fall from grace is 'one stupendous error, or else an unfortunate accident'. And one morning, while Alice is babysitting her neighbour's children, a tragic accident does occur on the farm. This sets into motion a devastating and irrevocable string of events that will change the Goodwins' lives for ever as they find themselves trapped in a nightmare from which they cannot
escape.

A Map of the World is a harrowing tale of guilt, betrayal and the loss of innocence. Spellbinding, lyrical, and universal in its themes, this powerful, emotional page-turner shows that Jane Hamilton is a writer of exceptional talent.
