Impossible Animals

by J.T. Wilson

In 2008, a smart, organised historian called Annie-Key and her ex-boyfriend, a poetic activist called Damascus, set off on a mission to capture a cryptid: an unknown or fantastical animal. Only a few things stood in their way: they didn't know if the creatures definitely existed, they couldn't rely on local witness statements, and the tensions from their break-up kept rising to the surface. A decade later, their story remains one of the most-repeated and most fascinating stories in cryptozoology.

Told from both Annie-Key and Damascus's perspective, with contradictions intact, 'Impossible Animals' at last presents their side of the story. It's a globe-trotting adventure, equal parts profound, moving and hilarious.
