About
We've Been Waiting For You and Other Tales of Unease,“Not until after her death did his mother actually come to live with them full-time.” Thus begins John Burke’s “One Day You’ll Learn”, a chilling ghost story in which a monstrous woman refuses to loosen her grip on her son. We’ve Been Waiting For You is the first collection entirely devoted to Mr Burke’s “uneasy” short stories, an event long overdue.
