210 Seiten, Taschenbuch

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

There is something slightly off in these stories.In The Man Without a Head, Dennis Morton gathers eighteen literary short stories that move between the real and the surreal without warning. Set across London streets, rural corners, and distant landscapes, these are not separate worlds, but recognisable ones - altered just enough to feel unstable.A man becomes a national spectacle after an unthinkable accident.A quiet life bends under forces that never fully reveal themselves.Ordinary moments tip, almost unnoticed, into something stranger.Written in a flowing, distinctive style, the collection explores identity, memory, perception, and the fragile structures that hold everyday life together. Morton's stories are by turns darkly comic, unsettling, and sharply observed, allowing atmosphere and unease to build rather than explain themselves.Some stories remain grounded. Others lean into the surreal. All share a voice that resists neat resolution and invites the reader to sit inside uncertainty.The Man Without a Head is a literary debut that does not announce its strangeness - it lets it surface slowly, until the familiar no longer feels secure.
