A new collection of stories from Derek O’Gorman, featuring ntricate ironies of fate, the human condition, and the complexities of individuals and their sense of belonging. Coming this fall.
“McDermott’s writing focuses on the everyday and the mundane then skews it slightly. In some stories there is a vein of dark humour, in others a beautiful poignancy, and in some a surreal quality, all mined from the small things that pass most of us by. His unique observations make each story a journey into a world at once familiar yet also strange, intriguing and arresting. His short stories are fever dreams and visions that will linger in your thoughts. This is a collection to relish.” – Shane Dunphy author of Bring Her Home
