How well do we know anyone, when we often don't know ourselves? Eavesdrop on the lives of a small group of people. Follow and learn about them over the course of a week. Observe their every movement, word and thought as they lie, cheat and even kill. They are unwittingly becoming connected to each other, until the time when all stories end: with the ending of life. As a consequence of a previous crime, an affluent man is soon to be murdered. A husband and wife both harbour secrets, one of them intent on revelation. A young man questions his sexuality. A group of friends are ignorant of the role that one of them has played in a man's death. An innovative and erotic postmodern novel which explores the inner recesses of the human psyche. AUTHOR: Arthur Mauritz was born in Bristol in 1989, and in the past two decades has played rugby for a local team, lead-guitar in a local thrash-metal band, and studied language at university, all without leaving the confines of what he regards as the world's greatest city. During this time, he has worked as a shoe salesman, a pint-puller, and a kitchen porter, pursuing his hobbies of writing, rugby, and music as much as he can with the demands of a real-life job. He also publishes poetry under a different name. 'Apparel' is his first novel.
