A lecturer cornered in an embarrassing menage a trois, a Glaswegian Cinderella a
nd an extremely talkative dentist all feature in this brilliant and original col
lection of tall tales from Alasdair Gray, author of "Lanark", "Poor Things" and
"The Book of Prefaces". Bringing together social realism, sexual comedy, science
fiction and satire, "Ten Tales Tall and True" proves that truth is indeed much
stranger than fiction.
