Wee Girls by Murphy Lizz

A moving and often amusing collection of fiction, poetry and autobiography by top-selling and award-winning authors. Tales of blood and bloodlines – Irish grandmothers, ma’s and da’s, the Famine and the Troubles. Whatever the form, these are the stories, the music, the whispering dreams and the voices that ache to be heard. There is wildness and daring in these voices. They call up legions out of the sea and set fires alight. They hang out over garden fences, move restlessly, are dotey, beaming, weeping, powerful.
"A nice big fat value-for-money anthology with an extremely broad range" --Margie Cronin, "Refractory Girl
Lizz Murphy is the author of three previous collections of poetry, and has edited four anthologies of women's writing.
