This is the fourth collection of short stories by David Porter. Some are from old ideas, others newer. All share a direct style, twists and turns from the dark side of life and some amusing elements.
The stories are drawn from a varied life of performing in theatre in education, high school drama teaching, political organising, serving as Member of Parliament for a decade, examining/assessing and being a married father of four and grandfather of nine.
As with his previous short story anthologies, WILD BEASTS AND PLAGUE (2018), SCOFFERS WILL COME (2019) and THE SCAPEGOAT KEEPER (2021) plus his novels OLD MEN'S DREAMS (2015), DETESTABLE THINGS (2020) and NO LACK OF MADMEN (2023), this collection is published under his imprint Walk in My Shoes Publications, acknowledging Charcot Marie Tooth, a condition that has given him a lifetime of deformed feet to walk on.
