The Black sheep (short stories) by Tod Collins
Condition:
Paperback. Like new state
Short Description: In The Black Sheep the author sculpts short stories with inevitable twists in the tail. He writes of a hill-country vet who is called on to treat a mad ox and he takes the reader through a caesarean surgery under the worst imaginable conditions. He tells of a journey back from the pit of deepest despair and of a meeting with a most unusual psychotherapist. He gets his own back on an English aristocrat who set out to humiliate him, and describes how - sozzled - he replaces a pet hamster in an upmarket London practice. The epic tales of a mountain peak and the drama surrounding its name, as well as the greatest ever case of sheep theft, are also penned in his distinctive fashion.
