Jane Gardam has fashioned a dozen sturdy stories with surprisingly dark souls. Subtitled 'Hauntings and Grotesques', they trespass on a world of menace and shadow with all the brio of a rambler tramping an overgrown footpath. Short, stocky sentences march ahead of the languid poeticisms usually preferred for tales of the unexpected. Never is a word wasted.
