SYNOPSIS
Each of the stories that make up Damage represent a new take on the theme of difference and strangeness in human life. There are elements of traditional horror, fantasy and the supernatural, but also of beauty, humour, compassion and love.
- In ‘Homecraft’ two children learn to survive in a derelict building;
- a rock singer deals with her addictions in ‘Siren’;
- in ‘Selkie: A Scottish Idyll’, the traditional Celtic tale is given a modern twist;
- the title story follows an asylum-seeker leading a double life;
- the strange rituals of a group of bird watchers are charted in ‘Boom Bird’;
- and in ‘Northern Light’ an Icelandic myth unravels in a contemporary setting.
