In The Time Of Foxes
Paperback Edition: 1
'A fox could be a shape-shifter, a spirit being. It could appear in human form if this suited its purposes; it could come and go as it pleased, play tricks, lead men astray.'
An escapee from the Family in Japan; an animal activist with something to hide; a cafe-owner in Sydney reconnecting with her estranged husband; even a journalist on Mars, face-to-face with his fate.
The world has taught these men and women how to change shape, to be cunning - but have they also learned to be wise?
In the Time of Foxes is both compellingly readable and deeply insightful about the times in which we live, each narrative a compressed novel. With an exhilarating span of people and places, it shows the short story collection at its most entertaining and rewarding, and introduces Jo Lennan as an irresistible new storyteller.
