NATURAL HISTORY

'The gallery before her stretched as far as the Botanical Gardens had been long, with display case upon display case thrown into illumination as a series of overhead lights came on. It was at least ten seconds until the gallery was fully lit.
The first thing Rosa saw was a group of winged monkeys, just a few metres into the gallery. They seemed to be hovering in mid-air, though none of them were making any sound... Then she saw the wires from which the monkeys were suspended, and the glassiness of their eyes.
‘Oh,’ she said.'
