Where: Kay's
Book: Jellyfish by Janice Galloway
From Amazon.co.uk:
"Sex and Love and Parenthood. In this sparkling and powerful new collection, Janice Galloway takes on David Lodge's assertion. Literature is mostly about having sex and not much about having children; life's the other way round and scent-marks her multi-layered fiction with what she believes to be the greater truth. Razor sharp tales of two of the most powerful human experiences from one of our country s best loved and most acclaimed authors."
Praise for Janice Galloway's short stories:
'Stories that walk with steady, nerve-cracking skill down a nightmare edge. A virtuoso work.' -- New Statesman
'Blood is a salutary collection. It heightens and dignifies the human, and does it with writing that veers between the good and the simply superb. A writer of passion and virtuosity shines through.' -- Scotland on Sunday
'Genuinely unnerving. This is a fierce, troubling new writer.' -- Observer
'Galloway flecks her hard-edged realism with impressionist grace-notes, a potent mixture that confirms her as one of Scotlands best young writers.' -- Sunday Telegraph
