Winner of The Edge Hill Short Story Prize 2017. By the author of Everything Under, long-listed for the Man Booker Prize 2018.

The Fen is a liminal land. Real people live their lives here. They wrestle with sex and desire, with everyday routine. But the wild is always close at hand, ready to erupt.
