Description:
A man wakes up one morning to find an unknown woman
in bed beside him. A failed writer devises an ingenious method of plagiarizing

vanishing overnight. An ancient grand piano is purchased by a mysterious young
customer with an old secret. A spontaneous experiment in the paranormal
produces an unexpected result...
This
collection of 14 short stories is Alex Skovron's second book of fiction, after
his novella The Poet (2005)
introduces an eclectic range of protagonists, predicaments, voices, and
narrative styles — playful, earnest, speculative, ironic, intimate,
bittersweet, surreal. Between them, the characters'stories highlight the
untoward in the everyday, the transformative in the mundane, the twists and
turning-points that can challenge us — and the games we play with others, and
with ourselves.
'Intricate, dreamy, deeply literate stories that
unsettle the senses and stir the intellect.' — Helen Garner
'By turns beautifully detailed, puzzling and always
intriguing, the hauntingly solitary tone of these exquisitely observed stories
induces a rare meditative attentiveness in the reader. It is a powerfully
affecting collection that left me eager to explore more of Skovron's world.' — Alex Miller

Works well
Color: 5-in-1 Black, Size: Rechargeable Set
Have owned many of these cordless wine openers, some by major brands. The batteries on all seem to fail after a few years, so decided to get this cheaper version during Prime Days. After 5 months, it's holding up well. The wine foil opener is a little flimsy, but if you grip it tightly, it's fine (though it seems that it could easily break).
