“Women on the Edge”

Restless with desire, the characters in these short story collections look beyond ‘ordinary’ experiences in an effort to come to terms with themselves. In Claire-Louise Bennett’s sparkling collection, Pond, an unnamed woman is living in solitude on the edge of a seaside town. Meanwhile 2016 Pulitzer Prize finalist Kelly Link’s Get In Trouble exquisitely explores the odd, often fantastical corners of our reality.

Part of the First Book Award Nominee series of events.
