The terminal beach

The terminal beach

A collection of short stories ranging from the title-story's disturbing picture of an abandoned atomic testing site on an island in the Pacific to a shocking Oedipal fantasy. At the heart of these stories lies the bitter paradox that the extraordinary creative power of man's imagination is matched only by his reckless instinct for destruction.
