Audio: Little Souls (a Kilphouca story)
Each day this week will feature one reading from the Kilphouca stories: extracts from a collection of short stories in development, set in a fictional Irish town which has been gripped by mass hysteria—a hallucinatory contamination in the whiskey during a local festival. Written by Brian Manton.
“Jolene sat low, well below the cloud of enthusiasm and safe from infection. She was reeling from the sudden conclusion of a thing with a thick tongued liar.”
Check back tomorrow for another Kilphouca story.
