Rezensionen
Famed though it is for its flatness, Norfolk is a county of manifold aspects, many of which are captured in these sharp, subtle new stories by native son DJ Taylor. They all emerged from 2020's lockdown, and together delineate the region's geographical and social range, occasionally squinting back in time and tuning in to mythical echoes.
