WINNER OF THE PHILIP K. DICK AWARD
The baker's dozen stories gathered here turn readers into travellers to the past and the future, and explorers of the weirder points of the present. The journey is the thing as Pinsker weaves music, memory, technology, history, mystery, love, loss, and even multiple selves on generation ships and cruise ships, on highways and high seas, in murder houses and treehouses. They feature runaways, fiddle-playing astronauts and retired time travellers.
Weird, wired, hopeful, haunting, and often beautiful, Sarah Pinsker's stories cast a searching light on human nature. But what the heart wants is not always right, or easy.
Praise for Sooner or Later Everything Falls Into the Sea:
'Simply wonderful... Each story is generous and original' KAREN JOY FOWLER
'An auspicious start to what promises to be one wild ride of a literary career' KIRKUS
'Stories that are as delightful and surprising to pore through as they are introspective and elegiac' PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
