Letters Home

Martyn Bedford’s short stories ask a difficult the question: how do we re-define ourselves in the age of ‘post-truth’ reasoning, identity politics and social media echo-chambers. What constitutes personal identity, and what can we call ‘home’, when the places we come from are either no-longer accessible, or not what they claim to be. Informed by Bedford’s early career as a thriller writer, these stories read as much like mysteries, waiting to reveal themselves, as literary short stories.
