'Elegant, scrupulously poised, always intelligent and, not least, original' Angela CarterThe characters in Anne Enright's fierce and witty first collection of stories stand at an oblique angle to society. Full of desire, but out of kilter, their response to a dislocated reality is mutinous, wild, unforgettable.

She has published two collection of stories, collected asYesterdays Weather, one book of non-fiction,Making Babies, and five novels, includingThe Gathering, which was the Irish Novel of the Year, and won the Irish Fiction Award and the 2007 Man Booker Prize, andThe Forgotten Waltz, which was awarded the Andrew Carnegie Medal for Excellence in Fiction. She is the inaugural Laureate for Irish Fiction.
