every short story by alasdair gray 1951 2012 alasdair gray

The first sixteen tales in this collection were published by Canongate in 1983 with the title Unlikely Stories, Mostly. This collection also has fifty-seven tales from later books, plus sixteen new ones written for the hardback publication of this collection. This last section, Tales Droll and Plausible, shows that Gray''s recent twenty-first-century fiction is as uncomfortably funny and up to date as his earliest.

When you make a deal with a demon, beware the fine print... and your heart. Everyone knows about the Fixer—the demon who can solve any problem for a price. I told myself I was desperate enough to risk it. One call, one deal, and my troubles would be over. What I didn't count on was him: devastatingly beautiful, dangerous, and nothing like the monster I'd imagined. Now he's back to collect, and the price is steeper than I ever dreamed. The one thing I can't bear to lose hangs in the balance. Worse still, with every heated glance and brush of his fingers, I'm starting to wonder if I want to resist him at all. They say dealing with demons is playing with fire. I'm about to discover just how sweet it feels to burn. Enter the dark and dangerous world of The Fixer—a sizzling paranormal romance where passion and peril collide. ___________________________________________________________________Praise for the Shifter Days, Vampire Nights & Demons in Between series:? ? ? ? ?

Since 1981, when Alasdair Gray''s first novel Lanark was published by Canongate, his characters have aged as fast as their author. The Ends of Our Tethers shows the high jinks of many folk in the last stages of physical, moral and social decrepitude - a sure tonic for the young. The first work of fiction in over six years by one of Britain''s most original and brilliant writers, this wonderful (and very funny) new collection reaffirms Gray''s position as a master of the short story. The Ends of Our Tethers is vintage Gray - experimental, mischievous, wide-ranging but also subtly connected. And as always the work is hallmarked with his highly engaging prose style, dry wit and fecund imagination. These thirteen tales challenge prejudice, question social imbalances and explore human foibles. In ''No Bluebeard'', a socially reclusive man, veteran of three marriages, meets a disturbed and eccentric woman desperate to remain hidden from her family. In ''Job''s Skin Game'' a father develops a skin condition in response to the emotional shock of losing his two sons in the September 11th attacks and his fortune in the dot-com crisis. The exquisite pleasure he takes from scratching and peeling his dead epidermis ... Unknown localization key: "more"

In this frank, playful and typically unorthodox collection of essays, Alasdair Gray tells how his early life experiences influenced his writing, including the creation of those landmarks of literature, Lanark and 1982, Janine. He details the inspirations behind his many acclaimed artworks and murals, and makes clear how his moral, social and political beliefs and his work are inextricably linked.Incisive, funny and fired with passion, Of Me and Others is as much about people, place and politics as it is about Gray''s own life in art.

A tale of border warfare, military and erotic, set in the twenty-third century, where the women rule the kingdom and the men play war games. This is the fictional memoir of Wat Dryhope - edited, annotated and commented upon. History has come to an end, war is regulated as if it''s all a game. But Wat, the History Maker himself, does not play entirely by the rules, and when a woman, Delilah Puddock, joins the fray, this ''utopian'' history is further enlivened. Alasdair Gray cleverly plays with the notion and writing of history, as well as perennial modern debates on war, sexism and society - entertaining and thought-provoking, this is a delightful satire illustrated throughout by the author.

Jock McLeish, failed husband, lover and businessman is alone in a hotel room, drinking whisky, fantasising about sex and contemplating suicide. As he tries to distance himself from reality, his lonely, alcohol-fuelled fantasies are interrupted by a flood of memories, reminding him of his own shortcomings.An unforgettably imaginative book, deeply experimental in its form and charged with a dark humour, 1982, Janine is a searing portrait of male need and inadequacy. Gray''s exploration of politics, religion, powerlessness and pornography has lost none of its power to shock and entertain.

Hundreds of anthologies of women’s short stories have appeared in the literary market between the 1970s and now. This publishing and cultural phenomenon is considered for the first time in this book, which argues that during this period anthologies have become a literary technology used not only to make visible female short story writers, but also to think about, and mould ideas of, womanhood. Through creative and contextualised readings of the most important anthologies produced in this period, this study shows that this literary form has contributed to, and in some cases pioneered, key developments in gender theory and feminist thought, including questions of political combination among women which underlie contemporary global movements such as #MeToo. In doing so, the book also develops the first book-length conceptualisation of the features and meaning-making mechanisms of the short story anthology as a literary form.This book will benefit academics and students working in the fields of short fiction, publishing and women’s studies, as well as feminist scholars and a growing number of specialists interested in the anthology as a literary form worldwide.

In this enduring classic, renowned Irish author Seán O''Faoláin offers a penetrating examination of what makes great short fiction work. Drawing from his experience as both a master practitioner and dedicated teacher of the form, O''Faoláin provides aspiring writers with insights that have remained relevant for over seven decades.The heart of O''Faoláin''s approach lies not in technical formulas but in his insistence that good writing begins with authentic perception. Through clear-eyed analysis and memorable examples, he demonstrates why so many aspiring writers fail—not for lack of technique, but because they have not truly learned to see the world around them.O''Faoláin challenges the notion that ordinary lives provide insufficient material for fiction, pointing to writers like Dickens and Maupassant who transformed humble experiences into enduring literature. He argues persuasively that the bank clerk who claims to have nothing to write about has missed the essential truth: that the writer''s gift lies not in extraordinary circumstances but in extraordinary awareness. His unique perspective as an Irish writer engaged with European literary traditions gives the book a broad, cosmopolitan outlook. ''The Short Story'' stands alongside Frank O''Connor''s ''The Lonely Voice'' as an indispensable resource for writers, readers, and scholars.Blending practical advice with philosophical ...

WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY CHRIS POWER‘A master of the short form’ IndependentWide-ranging, suggestive, and ever-daring, Roberto Bolaño's short stories map out the dark terrain that he would go on to explore in his novellas and epic novels. From melancholic portraits of exile and its folklore to a rogue’s gallery of desperate characters futilely attempting to unearth the animating secrets of the world, each of Bolaño’s short fictions adds yet another door, a window, a secret passage onto the sinister, eerie universe that Bolaño brought to life across his body of work. Bringing together Last Evenings on Earth, The Return and The Insufferable Gaucho, as well as Bolaño’s posthumously published stories, this new book marks the first time these fictions have been collected in one edition, allowing for a major reappraisal of the vital place that the short story commands for Bolaño’s literary legacy. ‘Bolaño was a flat-out genius, one of the greatest writers of our time’ Paul Auster‘Bolaño was a game changer: his field was politics, poetry and melancholia . . . and his writing was always unparalleled’ Mariana Enríquez
