Being a big fan of Ciara Geraghty I was excited to discover she had contributed to this anthology of short stories along with 13 other Irish writers. I was even more astonished to find out as I was reading, that this was published before her first book.

The content of the stories is diverse and interesting. There are very few happy stories, if any, but each one is hard hitting and thought provoking. A few had me in tears. I'm glad I picked it up.
