Thought provoking, shocking, funny, sad, and searingly honest, thirty three of Ireland’s top women writers have poured their hearts onto the page in this astonishing and eye opening collection.
Cathy Kelly writes about her life changing visit to Africa in ‘Children is a Language’; Sinead Moriarty tells the truth about second pregnancies; Anne Dunlop lifts the lids on Glammy Grannys and Anne Marie Forrest tells the the heart breaking story of baby Darragh who died in her arms.
Anne Enright gives an extraordinary and poignant account of the birth of her baby girl in ‘Birth’; and new voice, Vanessa O’Loughlin tells the heart stopping tale of one mother’s dash to save her daughter’s life in ‘Every Second Counts’.
Thirty-four women, thirty-four extraordinary true life tales.
“Each story has something unique to impart” Irish Mail on Sunday
