After the Plague

After the Plague is a formidable achievement. It is hip, slick and witty'. SUNDAY TELEGRAPH '...A mercurial craftsman mustering some of his most assured work'. FT ' Boyle has the ability to create devastating situations, lighten them with a satirical gleam and then twist them into the kind of joke that makes your stomach hurt'. DAILY MAIL '...Boyle writes so beautifully...it always feels natural, never forced'. GUARDIAN Maverick, unpredictable and accomplished, T.C. Boyle has been called the 'trickster of American letters'. AFTER THE PLAGUE is his latest collection of short stories - here are tales that superbly veer from the psychological to the slapstick, from surrealism to satire, once again proving him to be one of America's most formidable writers.
