Freak Nights

Freak Nights by Ciaran Folan introduces a disturbing and deeply exciting new voice in Irish fiction. Set in Dublin, the Midlands, Italy and Spain, his stories are of late-night revelations, infidelities, and other smoke-and-shadow games wherein his characters often see things in a different light. A child who discovers his quixotic parents to be petty criminals; lovers abroad finding themselves utterly estranged; a middle-aged man who suddenly realizes his friends are all either dope smokers or liars or both. show more
