Synopsis: With his first collection of short fiction, Unlikely Stories, Mostly, Scottish artist and author Alasdair Gray perfected the blend of visual and verbal elements which has since characterised his work. Blending surrealism with absurdist comedy Alasdair Gray manages to create a unique mythology starting from the modern times and all down through the ages Like Gray's best-known work Lanark, the book was published in the 1983 but contains work going back thirty years.
