Children's Children - Jan Carson - Bog

'Jan Carson is a born storyteller' Lisa McInerneyA floating six-year-old tethered to the backyard fence, two siblings watching their parents argue inside a greenhouse, a human statue who's lost the ability to move and a support group for the haunted: the characters in Jan Carson's debut short story collection are all falling apart in their own peculiar ways.Mixing Carson's distinctive magical-realist voice with a more traditional brand of Irish literary fiction, Children's Children contains absurdist, darkly humorous and heartbreaking stories which explore the concept of legacy, and the impact of one generation upon the next.
