IRISH GIRL
Book ID/图书代码: 02330009B33950
English Summary/英文概要: Inside Tim Johnston’s "Irish Girl," readers will find spellbinding stories of loss, absence, and the devastating effects of chance--of what happens when the unthinkable bad luck of other people, of other towns, becomes our bad luck, our town. Taut, lucid, and engrossing, provocative and dark--and often darkly funny--these stories have much to offer the lover of literary fiction as well as the reader who just loves a great story.
