Tenterhooks by Suzannah Dunn
Evoking the pain of lost love and hopeless dreams, while assessing the craziness of family relationships, these tales reveal the truths of human nature.
'Compelling power. . Dunn shows again her gift for making the ordinary seem extraordinary. Her ear for the rhythms of speech is unerring, her feeling for the minutiae of experience acute. It takes a good deal of artistry to create the illusion of real life, and she has managed something more difficult still, which is to show us how strange real life can be.' Christina Koning, The Times 'Her prose is precise, images bloom like bruises or blood drops . . . compact worlds are contained in the simplest of descriptions. Dunn is a surgeon of the heart, and her observations are sparky.' Eithne Farry, Time Out
