A simple act of gallantry in the Malaysian jungle spawns a lifelong feud in the Home Counties, where an overhanging tree is the last nail in the coffin for a life-long friendship between neighbours.
Taken from The Ghost Who Bled:
Spanning centuries and continents, the stories in this collection amount to a tour de force of literary worldbuilding. From deeply insecure time travellers to medieval mystics and futuristic body modification cults, Norminton's characters find themselves torn between conflicting impulses - temptation and fortitude, hubris and shame, longing and regret. By turns sad, strange and darkly comic, The Ghost Who Bled reveals a master storyteller of incredible range.
