'Double Delight Flash Fiction Pamphlet Duo' (UK delivery only)
NEW FLASH REVIEWS
The Neverlands
"Monaghan draws these characters and their hardscrabble existence with a skilled hand, taking care to grant readers intermittent moments of dark humor and optimism. This slim pamphlet contains unblinking truths about families, motherhood, childhood, poverty, and manages to make readers feel as though they’ve read an epic novel about Nuala and Mammy in just a handful of words."
Frannie Mcmillan, SmokeLong Quarterly, full review here
Midnight Laughter
"This is the perfect collection for someone who wants to read and think, to get something out of the time they put in to reading: weird and wonderful, seductive and strange."
Jon Wilkins, Everybody's Reviewing, full review here
