Every One Still Here

I get the feeling that Liadan N� Chuinn would hate the term "voice of a generation", but it may be foisted on them nonetheless - and with good reason' Sunday TimesA young girl spends her days on a double-decker bus. A bride-to-be prays to St Valentine's bones. Bouquets are found all over a museum. Teenagers gather to dissect a human body. Brimming with compassion and thrumming with energy, these stories are scrupulous in their attention to detail, epic in their scope. In this bravura debut collection, Liadan N� Chuinn delivers a consummate blend of the personal and the political.
