About the Book

‘Vivid, memorable and beautifully crafted‘ - Sarah Moss, author of Summerwater ‘A brilliant collection, from a remarkable talent‘ - Joseph O’Connor, author of Shadowplay Hearts and Bones is Niamh Mulvey's collection of stories about relationships. It explores what love does to us, and how we survive it. First-time lovers make mistakes; brothers and sisters try to forgive one another; and parents struggle and fail and struggle again. Teenage souls are swayed by euphoric faith in a higher power and then by devotion to desire, trapped between different notions of what might be true. Quiet revolutions happen in living rooms, on river banks, in packed pubs and empty churches, and years later we wonder why we ever did the things we did. Set between Ireland and London in the first two decades of this millennium, the stories in Hearts and Bones look at the changes that have torn through these times and ask who we are now that we’ve brought the old gods down. Witty, sharply observed and deeply moving, these ten stories announce an extraordinary new Irish literary talent. 'Highly accomplished, inventive' - Irish Times 'Stunning' - Sinéad Gleeson, author Constellations 'Poignant, unsparingly honest' - Sunday Independent

Review :
These stories are vivid, memorable and beautifully crafted. I was delighted to discover Niamh Mulvey’s work. Astute, surprising and wholly entertaining . . . There is a rich wit at play, Mulvey is an adept practitioner A brilliant collection, from a remarkable talent. These powerful stories come to us zinging with truth and wit, with pain and insight and joy Highly accomplished, inventive . . . What stands out is Mulvey's command of her own originality . . . Though a debut writer, Mulvey is coming in at a high level with a book that delivers much and promises more Beautifully written . . . a striking, page-turning debut Marvellous . . . A short and sweet debut collection brimming with poised assurance . . . Mulvey is an extremely talented writer A hugely impressive debut that pivots on tiny moments rendered large, with such skill. Panoramic, precise, in controlled, stunning prose. Gorgeous stories full of humour, insight and readability Poignant and lyrical . . . Unsparingly honest in their perspective, these stories invite us to observe the fragility of truth and life. Honest, daringly fresh and stunningly written, these stories cut right to the very essence of what it means to be young Niamh Mulvey's stories are compassionate yet unflinchingly honest. She is a remarkable new talent with a distinctive voice and viewpoint. I can't wait to read more of her work Using crisp prose and, it seems, almost total recall, Niamh Mulvey's stories chronicle a changing Ireland. Hearts and Bones is a terrific debut collection from a writer full of promise Mulvey's precision, humour and economy are a kind of close up magic, albeit one that kicks you in the heart. Monolithic themes brought to a shimmering, livid clarity. Exceptional Closely observed, sparely told and deeply felt, the ten stories of Hearts and Bones will stay with you after you finish the book In Hearts and Bones, Niamh Mulvey demonstrates that she is a brilliant anatomist of shame and longing. This is a book to relish Mulvey is a stylish and inventive, yet precise, writer who captures a contemporary sensibility in her stories of love and disillusion
