A man falls from a roof whilst spying on his on his beautiful widowed neighbour. A newly married couple seeking enlightenment take a three year vow silence and move to a yurt in Arizona desert. A handsome young man works in real-estate by day, but has a far more sinister profession by night. Giant men are kept in cages to ensure their nightly service to their country. A man develops an unhealthy interest in his recently deceased reclusive rock-star neighbour. And on Christmas day at the San Francisco Zoo a terrible and tragic event occurs. These stories explore the mundane, the devastating, the figurative and the implausible in an enthralling collection.
