註釋
"This collection of nearly a hundred pieces of very short fiction spans five decades and reveals James Kelman's mastery of the form. As ever, Kelman insists on his characters telling their stories in their own voices, whether in working-class Glaswegian dialect or the dull menace of bureaucratic babble. Everyday tragedy and bleak humor color these marvels of narrative efficiency, yet at their core they are tender and full of human truth. An introduction by the author, new for this collection, examines why stories matter and defends the writer's freedom to choose voice, form, spelling, punctuation, even typography - the freedom to create, to present the story 'just as it is'"--
