Terroir

From England to Europe, Africa to South America, these stories from prizewinning short-story writer Graham Mort explore relationships: father and child; man and wife; man and his environment. A rising star of winemaking understands his terroir, but oversteps the boundaries; a father taking his son on a day out finds himself in unexpectedly terrifying circumstances; an aid worker in Uganda finds himself treading in his father’s footsteps. All these stories are sensitively told and beautifully written, bringing fresh perspectives to our place in the world around us. Graham Mort has won the Edgehill and Bridport and Short Fiction short story prizes.
