Egaeus Press

Mills of Silence

Anybody fortunate enough to have read either of Egaeus Press's previous Charles Wilkinson collections (A Twist in The Eye & Splendid in Ash) will already be familiar with the unique worlds his tales inhabit. On the face of it, these are often recognisable realities populated by ordinary people; conspicuously so perhaps! Yet they are realities whose gossamer veneers are liable to tear, prone to reveal the insidious agencies, mad philosophers, fake-philanthropic organisations and amorphous forces that are really running things!

With Mills of Silence, Charles Wilkinson presents a collection of eleven short stories as well as a previously unpublished novella, constituting his most expansive and essential work to date.

The full table of contents is as follows:

Part I : The Uncertain Staircase
          The Immaterialists
          A Coastal Quest
          The Surrey Alterations
          Beyond the Lace
          These Words, Rising from Stone
          The Private Thinker
          Evening at the Aubergine Café
          To Sharpen, Spin
          Septs
          The Migration of Memories
          The Horseshoe Homes
Part II : Mills of Silence
