“As macabre as Roald Dahl at his finest, Deirdre Sullivan’s collection of short stories is an eerie, uncanny thing. Beautiful and haunting in equal measures.” – Louise O’Neill
The latest title from Banshee Press is a short story collection from Deirdre Sullivan. It’s her first book aimed at a specifically adult/general audience, even though her award-winning YA fiction (including her fairytale collection Tangleweed and Brine, her Children of Lir retelling Savage Her Reply, and her witchy Perfectly Preventable Deaths) has often found its way onto the grown-up bookshelves.
It’s gorgeous. You can find out more about it – and order – from Banshee directly, and it is also available to order from (and from Monday 17th, buy from! In person!) all good bookshops.
Deirdre has written a bit about writing the collection here, and will be taking part in the International Literature Festival Dublin later this month.
The launch is this Thursday, in association with the West Cork Literary Festival.
