Madame Zero by Sarah Hall

*WINNER OF THE BBC NATIONAL SHORT STORY AWARD 2020* SHORTLISTED FOR THE EDGE HILL SHORT STORY PRIZE 2018 LONGLISTED FOR THE GORDON BURN PRIZE 2018 WINNER OF THE EAST ANGLIAN BOOK AWARD FOR FICTION WINNER OF AN O.HENRY PRIZE FOR SHORT FICTION 'A genius.' Jessie Burton Madame Zero is a remarkable collection of dark, sensuous stories set in sometimes conflicting landscapes - rural, industrial, psychological - all of which are hauntingly resonant with dread. Whether set in an apocalyptic storm, a local swimming pool, or a surgical theatre, Sarah Hall's celebrated stories inhabit a hinterland between the natural and urban, the mundane and surreal, human and animal.

Sarah Hall was born in Cumbria in 1974. Twice nominated for the Man Booker prize, she is the award-winning author of five novels and two short story collections - The Beautiful Indifference, which won the Edge Hill and Portico prizes, and Madame Zero, winner of the East Anglian Book Award and the 2018 Edge Hill Readers' Choice Award, and a Guardian and Sunday Times book of the year 2017. She is currently the only author to be three times shortlisted for the BBC National Short Story Award, winning it in 2013 with 'Mrs Fox'.
