Cabbage and bones

an anthology of Irish American women's fiction

Edición de la obra Cabbage and bones

The story of Irish women in this country and their influence on American letters has until now been little recognized. In this unique and affecting anthology of fiction by Irish American women, the voices of some of our most important writers are finally celebrated. Organized chronologically from the 1930s to the present day, these twenty-four stories - some of which have never before been published in book form - explore the sometimes crushing love and obligations of family, the mixed blessing of faith, and the origins of identity and sexuality. They all serve to resurrect the powerful image, once buried, of Irish women as storytellers.
