Needlework (Paperback)

A powerful and poetic novel from the multi-award-winning author of Tangleweed and Brine Ces longs to be a tattoo artist and embroider skin with beautiful images. But for now she's just trying to reach adulthood without falling apart. Powerful, poetic and disturbing, Needlework is a girl's meditation on her efforts to maintain her bodily and spiritual integrity in the face of abuse, violation and neglect. 'Reading Needlework is similar to getting your first tattoo - it's searing, often painful, but it is an experience you'll never forget.' - Louise O'Neill, author of The Surface Breaks and Asking For It 'Needlework is a powerful novel that deserves to be read.' - Sarah Crossan, author of One and We Come Apart 'I loved Deirdre Sullivan's Needlework, a novel that is just as sharp and precise as its title suggests.' - Doireann Ni Ghriofa, poet 'A modern, broken fairy tale that gets under your skin.' - Tara Flynn, author and comedian
