Beschreibung
“Tell me Tomorrow and Other Stories” is a book of miscellaneous tales, most of which involve a distortion of time, as well as the subject of those who experience problems interacting with others in the everyday world. Two are about ghosts; one tells of the nightmare a young woman suffers once losing her job and having recited a nursery rhyme to a child. Another relates to a middle-aged woman who only just discovers that her problems relating to others has been due to having a condition that had gone undiagnosed, while one is about an intolerant right wing political party on the verge of coming into power. Then there is the tale of the girl with cerebral palsy whose wish to become able-bodied and to live an independent life is granted - but only for a limited time, another about the re-introduction of the workhouse and household servant to a post-pandemic Britain, where unemployment is rife and benefits no longer exist, and one about the adverse effects of Covid-19.
