| Abstract | "These electric stories by one of the most exciting Irish writer of the new century summon all the laughter, darkness, and intensity of contemporary life. A pair of fast girls court trouble on a slow night in a small town. Lonesome walkers take to the hills in pursuit of a saving embrace. A bewildered man steps off a country bus in search of his identity -- and a stiff drink. There are Little Kingdoms is the bravura debut collection by a writer who burst onto the literary stage fully formed"--Page 4 of cover. |
