Terse and elegantly melancholy, this is a story with sorrow at its core; of strangers and strangeness and estrangement. Careful in its observations of humanity, and never less than beautiful, even in its horror. - Laura Mauro, author of On The Shoulders of Otava

An exquisite tale of an Englishman abroad, where the intentions and interpretations of art are called into question. The Tomb of Alcibiades culminates with a chilling encounter worthy of Robert Aickman. Absolutely sublime. - Simon Avery, author of PoppyHarp
