A collection of new stories from the Booker-prize winning author of Last Orders, and of the Sunday Times bestseller Mothering Sunday.
Meet Dr Shah, who has never been to India, and Mrs Kaminski, on her way to Poland via A&E. Meet Holly and Polly, who have come to their own Anglo-Irish understanding; Charlie and Don, who have seen the docks turn into Docklands; Daisy Baker, terrified of Yorkshire; and Johnny Dewhurst, stranded on Exmoor.
Binding these stories together is Graham Swift's affectionate but unflinching instinct for the story of us all: an evocation of that mysterious body that is a nation, deepened by the palpable sense of our individual bodies finding or losing their way in the nationless territory of birth, ageing, sex and death.

Praise for Mothering Sunday:
'Bathed in light; and even when tragedy strikes, it blazes irresistibly⊠Swiftâs small fiction feels like a masterpieceâ Guardian
 âAlive with sensuousness and sensuality ⊠wonderfully accomplished, it is an achievementâ Sunday Times
âFrom start to finish Swiftâs is a novel of stylish brilliance and quiet narrative verve. The archly modulated, precise prose (a hybrid of Henry Green and Kazuo Ishiguro) is a glory to read. Now 66, Swift is a writer at the very top of his gameâ Evening Standard
âMothering Sunday is a powerful, philosophical and exquisitely observed novel about the lives we lead, and the parallel lives â the parallel stories â we can never know ⊠It may just be Swiftâs best novel yetâ Observer
