Standard Time by Keith Ridgway
Keith Ridgeway's characters negotiate their way through love, lust, anger, religious obsession, language and absence, and their stories are told with a mastery of narrative and dialogue which make this a refreshing, memorable and often very funny collection.
'These flawlessly structured yarns are told in lovingly crafted prose' The Times; 'His sentences are blessed with an energetic imperative. His pacing is faultless, as is his choreography of violence.' Times Literary Supplement; 'The Irishman's stories are artful indeed - with a rolling, gathering cadence that is mesmerising.' The Economist
