About this title

Synopsis

Andrew Hook sees the world through a different lens. He takes often mundane things and coaxes the reader to find strangeness, beauty, and horror in their form; he colours the world in surreal shades and leads the reader down discomforting paths where nothing is quite as it should be. Frequencies of Existence features twenty-four of the author’s finest stories, including four that are original to this collection.“For lovers of metafiction, poetic text, intellectual narrative and elusive characters who linger to haunt you. The thrill you get reading Andrew Hook’s weird collection is out of this world. It’s a pastiche of the literary strange. You’ll want to read more of Hook after this.” – Aurealis“Andrew Hook is an undisputed superstar of strange fiction” – Neil Williamson, author of The Moon King“A rich slab of Andrew Hook’s trademark understated measured, careful, but ruthless in its own quiet way.” – Chris Beckett, Arthur C. Clarke and Edge Hill Prize-winning author.“His stories range from the darkly apocalyptic to the hopefully visionary, some brilliant and none less than satisfactory." – The Harrow“Refreshingly original, uncompromisingly provocative, and daringly intelligent” – The Future FireYour Golden HandsThe Universe At Gun PointKodokushiA Knot of ToadsThe Abduction of EuropeThe Aniseed Gumball KidEskimoThe Last MohicanBulletA Life In PlasticBurning DaylightMaking Friends With Fold-Out FlapsThe Frequency of ExistenceThe Stench of WinterA Pageant of CloudsAlways Forever TodayThe Caged SeaInterferenceSoftwoodMy Naked ManTokyo In RainThe Day My Heart Stood StillDrowning In AirWhite MatterAbout the Author
