Flux is David Rees's second collection of stories. It is as wide in its range as 'Islands' (his first) - experiences of childhood, schooldays and adolescence as well as the pleasures and disappointments of maturity and choice. Its moods are equally varied, shifting from the intense to the low-key, from seriousness to high comedy; and the settings are always a pleasure: Rees can evoke a scene in Hawaii or Leningrad or a small town in California as effectively as London or Paris. Some of these stories look back to the way we were, while others reflect the shadow AIDS casts over our lives.
