      About This Book

      56 very short stories about death from Giller Prize finalist John Gould

      The End of Me is an astonishing set of sudden stories about the experience of mortality. With an ear attuned to the uncanny and the ironic, John Gould catches his characters at moments of illumination as they encounter the mystery of their finite being. A marooned astronaut bonds with a bereft cat; kids pelt a funeral procession with plums; a young girl ponders the brief brutality of her last life, and braces herself for the next one.

      Rife with invention, with fresh ideas and arresting voices, this collection of flash fiction shimmers with compassion and vitality.
