The Courage Consort by Michel Faber
The evocative language and intriguing glimpses of unfamiliar worlds that dazzled readers of The Crimson Petal and the White are here in abundance.--Los Angeles TimesBestselling author Michel Faber has created unique dramas in these tender, wise, and often funny tales of isolated people in wholly original settings. Faber's rich imagination is keenly in play as his inventive characters come together to unearth a long-hidden murder mystery surrounding an ancient monument, work out artistic and sexual differences as they rehearse one of the most challenging musical pieces ever written, and create strange civilizations when left to their own devices.
In all of these eerily beautiful tales, Faber's characters are bewildered solipsists, forced to piece together impenetrable worlds of blank pages, uncanny dissonances and subterranean emotions.--The New York Times Book Review
The collection's haunting originality solidifies Faber's place among today's most versatile writers.--Time Out New York
Michel Faber is the author of the bestselling The Crimson Petal and the White, Some Rain Must Fall, and Under the Skin, a finalist for the Whitbread Award. His work has been published in twenty countries and received several literary awards. He lives in Scotland.
