A desperately sick fisherman locks horns with a formidable quarry only to discover that it is he himself who has been hooked. A bibliophile who will do anything to secure a Fine/Fine discovers terror in the volumes he covets. An old taxidermist is stalked by a mysterious figure who seems to know him better than he does himself. And in a cool, dark forest, a bird watcher s mind unravels under the weight of childhood experience . . . In these and other forbidding tales, award-winning writer Conrad Williams grabs you by the throat and forces you to gaze upon the threats, shocks and diseases that make up the dark matter of human existence. Born with Teeth is a coruscating collection of stories about fathers, friends, faces; books, brain damage and blood. Read it very carefully . . . it might leave you with scars.
