Threads of Home - Brid Ni Chionnfhaolaidh CrimeA poignant and evocative debut collection, Threads of Home, by Mary L Walsh, explores the complexities of growing up Irish in South East England in the 1960s and 70s caught between two cultures, two histories and two ways of belonging. These are works of clarity, warmth and quiet intensity, reflecting on identity, locality and belonging.
