Publisher's Synopsis
Since the publication of 'Multitudes', her debut collection Lucy Caldwell has been celebrated as one of today's pre-eminent short story writers. In this much-anticipated third collection, she continues her exploration of the contemporary female experience, as she delves deeper into motherhood and marriage, love and longing. From a passionate affair in Blitz-era London, to a highly charged Christmas party in Belfast, to a trip to Marrakech which could form a new family, the thirteen striking stories of 'Openings' pulse with possibility and illuminate those fleeting but recognisable moments of heartbreak and hope that can change the course of a life.
