Instructions for the drowning : stories

Heighton, Steven 1961-2022 (author.).

Summary: A man recalls his father's advice on how to save a drowning person, but struggles to come to terms with its application. Locked down with his new partner and her aging cat, a recovering alcoholic must continue learning how to balance control and vulnerability. In stories about love and fear, romantic idealism and practical limitations, self-reckoning and how we learn to care for one another, this is the unforgettable last collection by a writer working at the height of his powers.
