description: Four people, close neighbours, living cheek-by-jowl, but in entirely different worlds, are thrown together in an alleged bizarre incident. Stories of a single day in Glasgow, colliding and tripping over one another, suggest that the city is more than just a sum of its parts. The storytelling powers first seen in Dolan's widely-acclaimed debut collection of short stories, Poor Angels, emerge confidently in this deft and atmospheric prose.
