'Remarkable . . . Fictions set apart not just by their concision, watchfulness and lucidity, but also by the understated way they communicate the trickle effect of betrayal' Sunday Times
Last Night is a spellbinding collection of stories about passion - by turns fiery and subdued, destructive and redemptive, alluring and devastating. A lover of poetry is asked by his wife to give up what may be his most treasured friendship. A book dealer is forced to face the truth when a figure from his past pays an unexpected visit. In the title story, a husband has promised to assist his wife's suicide.
Drawn in by a lingering swirl of tone, revelation and insight, the reader of these ten powerful stories will be transfixed as, seemingly without effort, Salter finds the charged moments that will come to shape a fate and detonates them before our very eyes.
'Penetrating tales about life form an American master of fiction . . . Last Night is a beautifully weighted collection . . . a deeply gratifying reminder of what reading is for' Independent
'Salter, cool, elegant and remorseless, is a truth teller. And each of the many truths contained in this unsettling volume are as deadly as silver bullets' Eileen Battersby, Irish Times
