Entertaining. Thought provoking. Will stay with me.

I found this collection of crime stories immensely entertaining. They’re set in Ireland (a country I don’t know) and they’re set (in a way) to music (mostly tracks I don’t know). But never mind that, they all WORK! Crime stories always ask questions about the human mind, about transgression, about responsibility, and I love the questions that these ones ask:

- Do you really know your friends? Who’s the tough one really?
- Your heroes – are they really what you thought?
- Can the criminal justice system actually change anyone?
- What would you do if you came across a murder and it looked terribly much as if you’d done it?
- What’s real? Do you want to know? Could you go on living if you did?
- So you just adore crime, hey? How about when it comes to YOU?
- What does it feel like when the worm turns?

I tried to pick a favorite one. The most straightforwardly entertaining was by Simon Maltman – I’m a great one for taking guided tours on city-breaks and I’ll never feel quite the same about them ever again. Perhaps the cleverest and the most original (though they were all pretty clever and pretty original) was by Gerrard Brennan. But the one that resonated most deeply, now, just now, was the final one. Oh so bitter, so true, so cathartic.

Greet wee book from local Authors

I really enjoyed reading this book. Being from Northern Ireland or Ulster as we call it, and knowing these authors are from here makes me proud to be from here. The stories are set around music and songs that I grew up listening to. Everyone from Northern Ireland should read this book. I will be on the look out for other stories from the authors in this book.
