In this lively collection of new writing, seven of our most acclaimed authors and thinkers go head to head with Lust, Greed, Gluttony, Envy, Wrath, Sloth and Vanity to explore what we really mean when we talk about sin. The resulting mixture of erudite and playful essays and startling new fiction might not make you a better person, but it will certainly give you pause for thought when you’re next laying the law down or – heaven forfend – about to do something beyond the pale yourself.

'It needn't be a guilty pleasure to enjoy reading these entertaining, educative pieces about the thin line between virtue and vice.'
(New Review (Observer))'Elegant...Sharp and amusing... This is often NSFT (not safe for trains) laugh-out-loud stuff (lol), but also as multi-layered and thought-provoking as some of the more conventionally structured work that precedes it.'
(Keith Bruce Herald)‘An enticing and beautifully illustrated collection.’
(Anita Sethi Observer)Formerly the Editor of Granta, Alex Clark is a critic, literary journalist and editor-at-large at Union Books.
