CRIME, COFFEE AND CARELESS TALK. A novella by award-winning novelist and graphic-novelist Simon Spurrier. Jay Berry is a pathetic man. He spends his days in the anodyne cafeterias of London, living vicariously through those around him, letting his pitiful attention skip like a pebble on a pond. But an overheard conversation and a grisly event - death-by-latte - embroil him in a caffeinated conspiracy his dismal imagination can barely comprehend. Unusual Concentrations is a bleakly funny novella about loneliness, imagination and the curious horrors of coffee shop culture. Following the success of his novels "Contract" and "A Serpent Uncoiled", this 40,000-word blast of abusrdist realism marks Spurrier's first foray into digital publishing.
