Short Stories by David Almond
David Almond is now known around the world as the author of the novels Skellig, Kit's Wilderness and The Savage. But his first two books - Sleepless Nights (1985) and A Kind of Heaven (1997) - were published by Iron Press.
A selection of these short stories for adults have been reissued in Nesting alongside two previously unpublished tales.
"There is nobody quite like Almond writing in adults' or children's fiction today. A writer of visionary, Blakean intensity."
The Times
"David Almond's books are strange, unsettling wild things. They are, like all great literature, beyond classification:"
The Guardian
