Brilliantly funny, terrifying, tender and sharp: the best short stories to come out of lockdown. A vibrant collection of established and emerging authors, including A L Kennedy, Helen Simpson, Alison Moore whose novel The Lighthouse was shortlisted for the Booker Prize, Amanda Huggins (winner of the Colm Toibin short story award), Richard Lambert shortlisted for The Sunday Times EFG award, Stephen S. Thomson author of Toy Soldiers and Sitting in Limbo for BBC 1 . Introduction by Amanda Craig, long listed for the Women's prize for Fiction 2021. '18 well-chosen stories, loosely based on the idea of solitude, explore loss, loneliness and love, and head from the wilds of the Northern Rockies with an ailing father and an intrepid grieving daughter (Leadfall by D. W. Wilson) to the cable-tangled, neon-jagged streets of Bangkok where, in Stephen Thomas's titular story, a traveller watches the world and thinks the setting is strange to her, but her thoughts are inescapably familiar.'DAILY MAIL

The 32 - An Anthology of Irish Working-Class Voices (Paperback): Paul McVeigh The 32 - An Anthology of Irish Working-Class Voices (Paperback)
Paul McVeigh; Contributions by Kevin Barry, Roddy Doyle, Lisa McInerney, Lyra Mckee
R316 R259 Discovery Miles 2 590 Save R57 (18%) Ships in 9 - 15 working days

We read because we want to experience lives and emotions beyond our own, to learn, to see with others' eyes. The 32 is a celebration of working-class voices from the island of Ireland. Edited by award-winning novelist Paul McVeigh, this intimate and illuminating collection features memoir and essays from established and emerging Irish voices including Kevin Barry, Dermot Bolger, Roddy Doyle, Lisa McInerney, Lyra McKee and many more. Too often, working-class writers find that the hurdles they come up against are higher and harder to leap over than those faced by writers from more affluent backgrounds. As in Common People - an anthology of working-class writers edited by Kit de Waal and the inspiration behind this collection - The 32 sees writers who have made that leap reach back to give a helping hand to those coming up behind. Without these working-class voices, without the vital reflection of real lives or role models for working-class readers and writers, literature will be poorer. We will all be poorer.
