Now
Jeffrey Archer has taken up a new challenge with this, his first collection of
short stories. The locations move from New York and London to Mexico and
Nigeria.
Each tale reveals the author’s talents as a short storyteller, and, as befits
the form, he uses the stories to build up a small cast of characters and then
shock the reader with an unexpected final twist.
Few
people will guess the endings of any of the tales, and everyone will have their
own favourite. What is certain is that with this archer every story unerringly
hits its mark!
A
QUIVER FULL OF ARROWS
‘Somerset
Maughamnever penned anything so swift or so urbanely satiric as this’
‘A
quite delightful collection of short stories… distinguished by lightness of
touch and ideas. I particularly recommend “Old Love”‘
‘When
a top storyteller like Jeffrey Archer turns his talent to producing short
stories, the scene is set for the sort of memorable mix that’s much in demand
these days.
A
QUIVER FULL OF ARROWS
adds
to his already impressive literary score’
‘Jeffrey
Archer’s quiver is full of sharp arrows. His stories show evidence of much
polish… and the result is always neat and satisfying’
