Storyline
Reviews
Book Data

As chapbooks are so short (typically 8 - 18 pages), to give a storyline would spoil the thrill of this spine-tingling tale!

Alison Moore has won the following major prizes:

2009 The New Writer Prose and Poetry Prizes for The Pre-War House
2013 The McKitterick Prize for The Lighthouse
(The Lighthouse was also shortlisted for the 2012 Man Booker Prize and in the New Writer category of the National Book Awards.)

Moore is also a guest writer for the Curious Tales collective

Curious Tales is an independent publishing collective based in North West England. They publish limited editions that specialise in stories of the supernatural and the uncanny.

Alison Moore takes the reader with deceptive simplicity into the dark and out the other side. I love the way she celebrates the ordinary, the ludicrous and also the lost.

Rachel Joyce, author of Miss Benson’s Beetle

Beautifully constructed and with a satisfying narrative drive, well realised characters, and underlying it all a touch of the blackly comedic.

Peter Tennant, Black Static #50

The story is only a few pages long, but it’s a beauty. During the short time it takes to read it, it is impossible not to become aware of how well made it is.

Nina Allan, author of The Spider’s House
