'A collection of stories that feel like worlds in their own right,
masterworks in miniature. This book is the short story form in the
hands of a master. Anna Bailey is a once-in-a-generation talent’ C
J CookeWasteland Girls is a collection of lyrical, incisive and
luminous stories by the Sunday Times bestselling author of Tall
Bones and Our Last Wild Days.These stunningly powerful stories
explore the wildness and beauty of the American heartlands, a place
where lives are lived on the margins, but also where there is
dignity, hope, revenge and restitution.In 'Long Way to Come for a
Sip of Water', which was shortlisted for the BBC National Short
Story Award, Texan man Ready drives through a divided US to see his
dying brother. Wasteland Girls, the title story, is a powerful tale
of a family of hoarders, of magic and revenge. In Yukon 1940, a
woman sits beside the body of her husband in a remote cabin,
trapped by the frozen sea. The Girl in the Ground follows a woman
who suddenly reappears after twenty years of absence, but for whom
the past is a void. A widower meets a man who should died many
times.Deeply atmospheric and soulful, the stories in Wasteland
Girls are inspired by the author's experience of living amid the
beautiful but often ferocious remote landscapes of the US, and
among the wild and secretive people who inhabit them. In the
vastness of the wilds, anything can happen...
