A couples confinement unearths deep resentments, manifesting itself into a violent outburst…
A man battling with his own psyche ruminates on what took him down this lonely path and how he can manage his neurosis to once again make a difference…
A faction of 5G dissidents plan a wave of arson attacks…
An ageing war veteran charts in a diary what he fears could be his final days - isolated in his room at a care home…
An obsession with social media ‘challenges’ leads to a momentary loss of concentration – and a stomach full of bleach….

Through sixteen, gritty, fictional tales, “Narratives…..” explores the lockdown from different, and often unconventional, first person perspectives - encompassing numerous cultural nuances of the time into its gripping prose.


Exhibiting wit and dark humour, whether a page-turning thriller or a poignant, heart-warming account, the feelings, fears and overall mental impact of the lockdown is explored from a variety of viewpoints – with several twists.


From absurd to heart-warming; subversive and irreverent, to deep and thought provoking; this collection of short stories all take place in a period of time we lived through that shall become immortalised in history.
