Every Short Story by Alasdair Gray 1951-2012

Alasdair Gray

From Shelf: Small and Perfectly Formed

An authoritative collection of Alasdair Gray's stories gathered over sixty two years

The first sixteen tales in this collection were published by Canongate in 1983 with the title Unlikely Stories, Mostly. This collection also has fifty-seven tales from later books, plus sixteen new ones written for the hardback publication of this collection. This last section, Tales Droll and Plausible, shows that Gray's recent twenty-first-century fiction is as uncomfortably funny and up to date as his earliest.
