Description
by Lucy Caldwell (Author)
"A stunning collection" (Tessa Hadley) of thirteen powerful stories about motherhood and marriage from acclaimed Northern Irish writer Lucy Caldwell.
"It takes a writer as subtle, compassionate and clear-eyed as Caldwell to track the hidden forces that work upon us...This is prose that liberates." --Claire Kilroy, author of Soldier Sailor I still sometimes wonder if one could draw a window in the wall, or in the air, and step through it together. To somewhere else, entirely new.From a highly charged Christmas party in Belfast to a passionate affair in Blitz-era London, to a trip to Marrakech which could form a new family, the stories in Openings pulse with possibility and illuminate those fleeting but recognisable moments of heartbreak and hope that can change the course of a life.
