Opis

Mixing Thelma and Louise and Lisa McInerney's The Glorious Heresies, with a dash of Pulp Fiction, Iron Annie heralds the arrival of a major new Irish writer.

Recenzje

What an exquisite novel Iron Annie is. The narrative voice fair crackles: it's full of wonder, grit, insight, sadness and joy, and is quite beautiful. And Aoife is one of those fictional characters that arrives only once or twice in an age, sublimely rendered and completely unforgettable. Donal Ryan, author of The Spinning Heart and From a Low and Quiet Sea
