Produktbeschreibung

Arthur Broomfield, in a collection of short stories that is sure to raise eyebrows, goes deep into the reality of life in contemporary Ireland. In his latest work, set in a rural landscape, Broomfield creates 'the event,' that changes the way we read not just the story but the changes that are taking place in Irish life. In stories that range from controversial insights into a fictious prison, and the mysterious appearance of rosary beads in a Protestant youth's jacket, to an after-hours double murder, Broomfield's authenticity is evident in his gift for dialogue; his humour, his poet's ear, breathe life into his morally vague characters. Sometimes robust, as in 'A night in Portallen,' or the heartbreakingly sensitive, 'The Martins,' his stories create a prism that will revolutionize our way of seeing Ireland in the twenty-first century.
