Publisher's Synopsis
A hot, tragic summer in 1980s Belfast. The loss of love echoed through the Shipping Forecast. A woman writes 'love' letters for illiterate girls in the Far East. The Kilburnie Kings hit the town. An old lady makes final plans for 'moksha'. These winning stories and other selected ones in the 2015 collection, 'deal with the way we live in all corners of the world; diversity in action and emotion.' Carrie Kania, literary agent and 2015 Bath Short Story Award shortlist judge.
