Mechanical ducks, shark women that taste of licorice, perverted sexual shenanigans in cramped office spaces, double-crossing Nazi apologists, bald-headed cultural subversives, and celebrity deer-culling—this is the wonderful and frightening world of Perverted by Language. Twenty-three writers choose a song by The Fall and use it as inspiration for a short story.

Contributors include: Steve Aylett, Matt Beaumont, Nicholas Blincoe, Clare Dudman, Richard Evans, Michel Faber, Niall Griffiths, Andrew Holmes, Mick Jackson, Nick Johnstone, Stewart Lee, Kevin MacNeil, Carlton Mellick III, Rebbecca Ray, Nicholas Royle, Matthew David Scott, Stav Sherez, Mark E Smith, Nick Stone, Matt Thorne, Jeff VanderMeer, Helen Walsh, and John Williams.

Review:
The best stories are laterally-minded flights of fancy... they nudge at the secrets contained in hidden worlds and parallel universes. It's this precise restraint that tantalises * Herald * Writers known and less so who've each managed to bring some fresh hell to MES's already weird and frightening world... a triumph -- Stuart Maconie * Word Magazine * Excellent * Independent on Sunday * Defiantly uncompromising... successfully evokes the spirit of The Fall * Daily Telegraph * Innovative and imaginative * Time Out * A witty, dark and often surreal anthology that's as enjoyably anarchic as Smith himself * Metro *
