Description:
In twelve exquisite stories set across the globe, Jess Gibson’s characters betray, provoke and charm, confronting what they see with their good eye – and their bad

Men and women confront the limits of their perception as reality shifts around them, in this startlingly original debut short-story collection

A stone appears in a woman’s pocket like a charm only to end up lodged in someone’s throat. A psychic harnesses her talent for animal communication to extract a perfect revenge. While staying in a beautiful home, an art appraiser falls for her hosts but suspects their collection is fake. A condescending artist throws a dinner party, where he discovers a painful and consequential truth.

In these twelve exquisite and uncanny stories, the world can change in an instant. The beautiful can suddenly become grotesque, the exalted disgraced, the genius an imposter. Ranging across the globe through the worlds of art, crime and fantasy, each character turns their gaze on themselves and on each other, to confront what they see with their good eye – and their bad.
