And as the doubles prepare to meet

Every One Still Here Fairy tales And as the doubles prepareA young girl spends her days on a double decker bus. A bride to be prays to St Valentine's bones. Bouquets are found all over a museum. Teenagers gather to dissect a human body. Brimming with compassion and thrumming with energy, these stories are scrupulous in their attention to detail, epic in their scope. In this bravura debut collection, Liadan N Chuinn delivers a consummate blend of the personal and the political.
