Description
Whether it’s a middle-aged man travelling to Mexico in search of a troubled sister or a thirty-something restaurant manager trying desperately to hold her life together, this stunning debut collection of interconnected stories unerringly charts the emotional journeys of a wonderful cast of characters, none more charming, interesting or endearing than the woman who lends her name to its title. Filled with compassion, humour and eloquence, A Clap for Cadence signals the arrival of a talented young writer of uncommon dexterity and maturity of voice, whose wholly original creations are as real and as recognizable as ourselves.
