Duets

Duets brings together the UK’s greatest short story authors to craft a new form of story.

Eight highly original stories, each woven from the joint inspiration of two amazing writers.

Woven back and forth between two writers, the stories in Duets are lyrical, exhilarating and beautifully written, their drama made greater by the harmonies and tensions in their writing.

Duets is a new type of short story book - responding, playing and subverting the form.

Eley Williams and Nell Stevens
Ben Pester and Tim McGabhann
Jon McGregor and Gurnaik Johal
Jo Lloyd and Adrian Duncan
Zoe Gilbert and Jarred McGinnis
Ruby Cowling and Anna Wood
Roelof Bakker and David Rose
