A
stunning
new
collection
of
stories
from
the
Man
Booker
Prize
and
Whitbread
Prize
shortlisted
author.Many
of
Legoland's
stories
begin
with
the
seemingly
every
day,
only
for
a
turn
of
events
to
land
them
in
an
unsettling
place
where
life's
normal
rules
no
longer
apply.
Whether
he's
writing
about
a
child’s
birthday
party
or
the
invasion
of
an
unnamed
country
each
story
is
full
of
Woodward's
blacker-than-black
humour,
fearless
surrealism,
and
poetic
phrasing.
Included
here
is
his
brilliant
story
'The
Family
Whistle',
shortlisted
for
the
Sunday
Times
EFG
Short
Story
Award.Legoland
celebrates
Woodward's
trademark
gift
for
wit
and
surprise:
his
lithe
prose
carrying
us
from
comedy
to
tragedy
and
back
again
within
a
single
tale.
It
confirms
him
as
one
of
the
most
gifted
and
original
writers
of
our
time.‘Gerard
Woodward
falls
squarely
between
the
comic
lunacy
of
American
short-form
virtuoso
George
Saunders
and
the
everyday
rhapsodies
of
Raymond
Carver’
