Lisa Blower won The Guardian's National Short Story competition in 2009, was shortlisted for the BBC National Short Story Award in 2013, has been Highly Commended and longlisted for the Bridport Prize for three consecutive years, and was one of just four UK authors longlisted for The Sunday Times Short Story Award 2018. Her debut novel Sitting Ducks (Fair Acre Press) was shortlisted for the inaugural Arnold Bennett Prize 2017 and longlisted for the Guardian Not the Booker 2016. Blower is a creative writing lecturer at Bangor University, Wales where she studied for her PhD.
The silent histories and harsh realities of life on the margins are given voice and warmth in this short story collection striking a new chord in its depiction of class and regionality. Reminiscent of Alan Bennett.
