Water for Gazing
A woman sees the sea for the first time, a stranger's photos come out of a Polaroid camera, people debone themselves to cure their misfortune. In this collection, no event is too trivial and no reality too absurd. The stories challenge the reader's imagination, taking them on a journey from realism, through absurdism, to surrealism.
A book written to make you laugh, tear up, and make you observe - as if for the first time - everyday objects, leaves, yourself, the sea.
