The Pier Falls by Mark Haddon
And Other Stories
A stark collection of short stories in which ordinary lives are jolted by disaster, obsession, and moral choice, ranging from a seaside collapse and a suburban brush with violence to a retold Greek myth and a fraught journey into space. With cool precision and dark wit, it probes loneliness, guilt, cruelty, and the stubborn resilience that persists in the aftermath, revealing how thin the boundary can be between safety and catastrophe.
