Tender, precise, comic and cgilling by turn, the stories in A.L.Kennedy's new collection confirm her repytation as one of the most exciting new writer to have appeared in the past decade.
"Kennedy has now proved that she is one of the few youn writers to have found a distinctive voice, one that we could recognise even from acouple sentences; and that in itself is already a considerable achievement"
Jonathan Coe, Mail on Sunday
"Powerful, acute and wholly convincing"
Julian Loose, Sunday times
"Great short stories are rare if not rarer than great poems and the fact that a handful here passess great magical quality is remarkable...A.L.Kennedy is a writer of original and beguiling diction"
Alan Taylor, Scotland on Sunday
