What becomes

What becomes

Kennedy, A. L.
Book 2009

A.L. Kennedy's remarkable new collection of stories shows us exactly what becomes of the broken-hearted. She reveals the sadness, violence, hurt, and terror, but also the redemption of love - and she does so with enormous human compassion, wild leaps of humour, and brilliantly original linguistic skill. Kennedy won the Costa Book Award for her novel "Day".
