A quietly subversive ghost story that plunges off the well trodden path and forges something far more rewarding and ultimately moving. Every bit as gloriously strange, tactile and disorientating as you’d hope from Aliya Whiteley. –  Malcolm Devlin, author of And Then I Woke Up

When I read Whiteley’s short stories I think of Japanese netsuke – magnificent miniatures, perfect in every detail. But netsuke don’t keep me awake at night. –  M.R.Carey, on From the Neck Up

Aliya’s stories are gloriously inventive, wide-ranging and beautifully written. –  Alison Moore, on From the Neck Up
