People face their troubles. And the Troubles. Which of them can keep their faith in humankind during these dark decades in Northern Ireland? Returning to the beloved characters who populate Orla McAlinden's award-winning debut The Accidental Wife, and introducing many new ones, Full of Grace probes deep into stories of love, betrayal, survival and belonging, in a changing land. Including The Visit, the short story that won the Writing.ie Short Story of the Year in the 2016 Bord Gáis Energy Irish Book Awards, and Breathing, the Wasafiri New Writing nominated short story, along with 19 brand new stories, Full of Grace turns an unsentimental eye and prize-winning prose onto everything from Bloody Sunday to Brexit and beyond.
