'Uncanny, absurd and at times macabre, these stories magically combine a poet's eye for imagery with a novelist's complexity of theme' Financial Times
Caravan Thieves is a beguiling, disconcerting, marvellously readable collection of stories by the Booker-shortlisted author of August and I'll Come to Bed at Noon. Full of his trademark mixture of humour, pathos, disappointed families and dysfunctional lives they include an ostracised small-town puppeteer, a commuter who fails to recognise his ex-wife, a bereaved academic working in the college kitchens after his part in a sex scandal and a family who wake up to find their caravan has been mysteriously transported overnight...
'He writes with subtlety and skill...beautifully manipulating the language which veers and soars from the vernacular to the high-flown and summoning characters that are at once believable and sympathetic' Daily Telegraph
'In clean, uncomplicated prose inlaid with images of striking lyricism, Woodward explores the bizarre possibilities of ordinary people's lives' Sunday Telegraph
