In Against the Dust, the suffocating summer heat threatens to drown an old house in dust, whilst a masterly spectre haunts his ageing servant—an attempt to keep his memories alive.

“I love these stories for their tight and complex architectures, for their dark corners, and for their willingness to shine a light on all the people we’ve been and all we might become. Brace yourselves.” — T Kira Madden, author of Long Live the Tribe of Fatherless Girls (Bloomsbury)

“In these beautiful stories, you’ll see yourself staring right back, mouthing the words, ‘Keep turning the pages. It’ll be okay—maybe not now, but someday.’” — Michael J Seidlinger, author of Standard Loneliness Package & My Pet Serial Killer
