Synopsis
"The Absence of Wings" is a collection of short stories intended to show the world through the eyes of some of the Earth’s most endangered and persecuted animals. The collection is an ark of sorts, offering a literary refuge for creatures that may one day exist only in story books, fables and myths. Here you will find, among other stories:•A mariner snatched from the deck of his ship by a sea wraith•The lament of a whale dragged onto the killing deck of a harpoon ship •A caged polar bear whose only taste of freedom comes from a racial memory of the arctic tundra •A shark that can swim into the sleeping minds of human beings •And a dolphin whose only chance of returning to open water lies in the movement of the tides on one particular night of the year These are stories that will change the way you look at the natural world. “I've enjoyed and admired the stories of Mark Stewart that I have read: they strike me as fine bonsai pieces, strong in their structure and dense in their grain, full of surprising drama.” Robert Macfarlane(Author of “The Wild Places”, and “Landmarks”)
