Never translated before, Yasutaka Tsutsui's stories are a mix of pathos, psychological insight and slapstick, shot through with Kafkaesque inventiveness and a dark-edged humour. The folly of human desire is a central theme. Famous in Japan as an actor and for his science fiction writing, Tsutsui cites his influences as Darwin, Freud and the Marx Brothers.
