Book excerpt: Short Stories Set in Cornwall, and covering a period of time from the end of WWII to the near future, coastal erosion and flooding take on a near mythical power as the short stories in this collection weave in and out of the recent past and near future, as lives and relationships ebb and flow with the tide. From one maritime tragedy to another, the community, and three generations of women from the same family, struggle with their over-close affinity for the sea. bored adolescents, selkies, farmers and hairdressers struggle to survive as the climate slowly destroys their livelihoods, their homes and ultimately, their loved ones.
