In Small Crimes in an Age of Abundance, Matthew Kneale takes us on a journey around today's uncertain world. From England to South America, China to Middle East, The United States to Africa, Kneale vividly captures the lives of ordinary people as they struggle to survive, and to do the right thing, often managing neither. By turns painful, moving and wickedly funny, this wonderfully entertaining book of short stories gains momentum until the world seems to be revealed to us in a new way.
