After a Dance
Selected Stories
(Author) Bridget O'ConnorA visceral, entertaining and unforgettable selection of stories from the celebrated author and screenwriter Bridget O'Connor.

In After A Dance, we meet a selection of O'Connor's most memorable characters often living on the margin of their own lives: from the anonymous thief set on an unusual prize to the hungover best man clinging to what he's lost to the unrepentant gold-digger who always comes out on top. From unravelling narcissists to melancholy romantics all human life is here--at its best and at its delightful worst.
