Good Eye, The: Stories

A major debut collection of globe-spanning stories set in the worlds of art, crime, and fantasy, by an exceptionally elegant and mischievous storyteller.

A stone appears in a woman’s pocket like a charm only to end up lodged in someone else’s throat. A condescending artist throws a dinner party with his too-square girlfriend, only to learn too late that she is far more daring than he ever imagined. A psychic harnesses her talent for animal communication to extract a perfect revenge after a stinging betrayal.
     In The Good Eye, the world can change in an instant. The beautiful turns grotesque, the exalted becomes the disgraced, the genius an imposter. Contradictory forces confront the men and women of Gibson’s collection, as they wrestle with the limits of perception.
     Pulsing with style and vibrancy, The Good Eye takes readers on an unforgettable journey, without ever giving in to easy answers, and announces the arrival of a prodigious new talent.
