Synopsis
Waterstones Irish Book of the Month for February 2022
Includes the winner of the 2021 BBC National Short Story Award
In eleven stories, Intimacies exquisitely charts the steps and missteps of young women trying to find their place in the world.
From a Belfast student ordering illegal drugs online to end an unwanted pregnancy to a young mother's brush with mortality, and from a Christmas Eve walking the city centre streets when everything seems possible, to a night flight from Canada which could change a life irrevocably, these are stories of love, loss and exile, of new beginnings and lives lived away from 'home'.
