Antiques and Alibis by Wendy H Jones

Antiques and Alibis by Wendy H Jones

Selected by Dean Young as winner of the Kathryn A. Morton Prize in Poetry, Fludde draws on Blake's Songs of Innocence and Experience to critique and dismantle contemporary American values and conditioning: commodification, environmental negligence, corporate exploitation, toxic masculinity. At once surreal and satirical, vulnerable and nostalgic, Mishler channels the voices of disillusioned middle management alongside the freewheeling imaginative vision of children to disrupt the fixity of our received ideas.

Wendy H. Jones is the author of the DI Shona McKenzie Mysteries and Cass Claymore Investigates series, both of which have won awards. She lives in Scotland and is the president of the Scottish Association of Writers, as well as an international public speaker.
