'In Bookends, his third book of short stories, the man who wrote The Complete and Utter Truth about the World and Everything In It and Where the Hell is Heaven? once again paints life and death, love and betrayal, honesty and deception. Mostly he portrays people and their relationships, and at times his dark sense of humour offers unflattering insights into the male psyche. Reflecting a lifetime of travel and people from everywhere, Ian Coulls's stories are drawn from Western, Middle Eastern and Far Eastern cultures.' (Published 1 October 2019)
