GENERAL FICTION

Imagine a world where a basket of crusty bread could bring down a government, the theft of lost teeth seems perfectly natural, and TV gameshows have more at stake than just the prize money.

 

A world where icons of the silver screen bicker over Christmas dinner and ‘Athletes Foot’ powder, a young man wonders if he’s just a little too happy with life, and where eccentric race-horse jockeys rub shoulders with serial-killers and unimaginative accountants (if such a thing truly exists).

 

Along the way, an old-timer is haunted by the moment his life changed forever, and a grown man buys a micro pig........This is the world of Dixon Pickle.

 

Darkly witty (but often warm and friendly), ‘Dixon Pickle’s Splendid Tales’ collects ten very different short stories guaranteed to make your life feel that little bit more normal. Unless you happen to live a life laced with obsession, revenge, fortune and misfortune of course, in which case, as the man himself suggests, these offerings will, at worst, ‘help you pass the time’. There is nothing more certain than that.
