Eating Naked is a blackly funny collection of award-winning short stories from the bestselling author of The Church of Dead Girls and Boy in the Water. Ranging from surreal to poignant, from chilling to comic, they get to the heart of a world in which order and reason rarely prevail.At the centre of the stories are men and women challenged by their own uncontrollable, illogical natures: poets with free-floating guilt, spouses with unacceptable sexual compulsions, gas men with erratic timetables. Marriages unravel, well-laid plans dissolve and placid lives are turned upside down by something unforeseen - be it as mundane as a chance conversation, as inevitable as death, or as improbable as a murderous pig.
