UNLIKELY STORIES MOSTLY (THE CANONS)

A man finds a bald patch on the back of his head that looks curiously like a face, then discovers he's splitting in two. A bored student suggests digging a tunnel into the foundations of the art school. An elderly man is healed by hundreds of tiny people working on repairs inside his own head. Alasdair Gray's first collection of short stories is testament to his singular imagination - darkly funny, gloriously illustrated, and steeped in myth and fable.
