Krátky popis
'A dazzling, heartbreaking debut collection' Guardian'Kennedy's
voice, and her unforgiving gaze, are electric' Sunday Times'These
stories sing, haunt and inspire laughter ... One of the best
collections I've read in years' Sinead GleesonA SUNDAY TIMES BOOK
OF THE YEARThe secrets people kept, the lies they told. In these
visceral, stunningly crafted stories, people are effortlessly cruel
to one another, and the natural world is a primitive salve.Here,
women are domestically trapped by predatorial men, Ireland's
folklore and politics loom large, and poverty - material,
emotional, sexual - seeps through every crack. A wife is abandoned
by her new husband in a ghost estate, with blood on her hands, a
young woman is tormented by visions of the man murdered by her
brother during the Troubles, a pregnant mother fears the worst as
her husband grows illegal cannabis with the help of a vulnerable
teenage girl, a woman struggles to forgive herself after an
abortion threatens to destroy her marriage. Announcing a major new
voice in literary fiction for the twenty-first century, these sharp
shocks of stories offer flashes of beauty, and even humour, amidst
the harshest of truths.
