- In this collection love and loss tear
at the fabric of everyday life and distort reality.
What was once objectively familiar is tainted by
uncertainty, and soon everything becomes subtly and
terrifyingly altered. In "Loup-garou" a young man
watches his own past re-enacted as an avante-garde
French film. In "Llanfihangel" memories of the past
are shown to be incorrect and misinterpreted. In
Russell's stories even the present appears to be open
to misunderstanding.
-
- When those around you insist that they
see the world differently at least you can argue with
them. But when you realise that you cannot rely on
your own senses then the world becomes a terrifying
place indeed.
