Den

di Joe Evans (Autore)

Wildfire, 2027

'Once I've taken his house from him, I will be entering through the front door.' In a garden somewhere in London, Fox is watching a man called Ben through his kitchen doors. What Ben has, Fox wants. Bi-folds. Crockery. Taps. A loving family, and a warm bed to sleep in at night. Fox believes Ben to be careless of his riches - he's a distant father, a disinterested partner. Ben doesn't even notice when Fox begins stealing pieces of his life - the odd shoe, a colourful sock, various bits of cutlery. And now he's had a taste of the good life, Fox wants more: to take over the entire house, and Ben's life with it. Voyeuristic and haunting, Den is a strikingly original fever-dream of a novel about what it means to make - and keep - a life, perfect for fans of Fruit Fly and The Lamb. PRAISE FOR DEN: 'At once elegiac and elegant, spiky and tender, surreal and painfully familiar, Den is a moving meditation on the lives we choose and the selves we can't escape from.' - Krystelle Bamford, author of Idle Grounds *'*Stunning, surreal, raw: Den is a tender, darkly comic story of grief, family and our basic need for shelter.' - Genevieve Marenghi, author of No Oil Painting *'*Tender, humorous and heartbreaking, this inventive new novel by Joe Evans introduces the reader to a side of London life that feels both instantly familiar and wondrously strange. A beautifully written, constantly surprising story about foxes (and humans).' - Emily Midorikawa, author of A Tiny Speck of Black and then Nothing
