The intro makes a valid point: without the pioneering women like Ann Quin, perhaps this century wouldn’t have seen the emergence of the most interesting contemporary writers: Eimar McBride, Claire Louise Bennett, Sheila Heti, Deborah Levy, among others.

It’s becoming evident to me that Quin was indeed a precursor to much of this century’s more experimental writing and that she was ahead of the game in so many ways. This book contains as the title implies a number of stories and fragments of her unique style. It’s incredible to think that this stuff dates from 1962 onwards! Maybe Quin was some kind of time traveller?
