Synopsis "Moving about the Place: New and Selected Stories"
This new collection of eleven stories by one of Ireland's most important writers brings together the best of Evelyn Conlon's work from the last ten years, and a number of new stories, including a novella-length story. In this collection, Conlon vividly imagines her characters in the wider world, whether it be Australia, Indonesia, Japan, Italy, Monaco or a house, with two drills of vegetables, in Skerries. A man and woman must wander around the equator because of a lie they told during the anti-apartheid days; a man holds out in a border-straddling tree; a Hiroshima woman decides to get pregnant after surviving the bomb; an Irishwoman attempts to assassinate Mussolini, another fights for women's suffrage in Australia.Brilliantly observed, witty, and full of hard-won truths, this collection shows how borders, movement and history can change and transform people's lives.
