Salt Water: And Other Short Stories

The mother who uses charity as a weapon. An invisible chef and his deadly mashed potato. The obsession that takes a man closer to the mysteries of the cosmos than he counted on. A man who can't stop crying. The murderer who helps his victims escape death. The weekend break that becomes a journey to edges of sanity. And more.

Eleven furiously original and off-centre stories that blend dark magical realism with gripping domestic drama to create tales that range from the hauntingly sinister to the downright bizarre.

Influenced by JG Ballard, Iain Banks, Will Self, Margaret Atwood and Kurt Vonnegut to name a few, Sef Hughes writes stories that are dark, heartbreaking, funny, twisted, bleak and hopeful in unequal measure, and that take his readers to the curious extremities of human relationships.
