Read the debut short story collection from the multi-award-winning author of The Raptures, now updated with a new bonus story. 'Jan Carson is a born storyteller' Lisa McInerneyA floating six-year-old tethered to the backyard fence; two siblings watching their parents argue inside a greenhouse; a human statue who’s lost the ability to move; a support group for the haunted: the characters in Children’s Children are all falling apart in their own peculiar ways. Told in Jan Carson’s distinctive voice, her debut short story collection contains absurdist, darkly humorous and heartbreaking stories which explore the concept of legacy, and the impact of one generation upon the next. --PRAISE FOR JAN CARSON:'These stories are pure magic, funny, sharp, heartbreaking, the short form at its absolute best.Jan Carson is a unique and very special writer, one of the greatest of the modern fabulists' DONAL RYAN, author of Heart, Be at Peace'Story after story glints with the strange, hard magic of the North . . .
