Fly on the Wall Press has signed Katie Oliver’s "captivating" short story collection, Ingrown.
Managing director Isabelle Kenyon acquired worldwide exclusive rights directly from the author. The collection is scheduled for publication on 2nd December 2024.
Oliver’s Ingrown offers "vivid narratives...into the space where the everyday collides with the unexpected. From a teenage swimmer grappling with an ingrown hair that takes on a life of its own, to a town besieged by uncontrollable moss growth and a composer haunted by a horror soundtrack, each story pushes the boundaries of our imagination."
The publisher continued: "Throughout this collection, Oliver examines the intricacies of human and non-human relationships, addressing themes that transcend gender. Characters search to uncover hidden truths about themselves and grapple with topics ranging from death and suicide to sexual assault."
