Product Description
The stories in This Cruel Station explore what it is like to be Irish — and new Irish — in today's society. Inspired by
his observations and interactions with recently-arrived refugees from Syria and Iraq (where Martin served for one
of his six tours of duty with the UN in the region), and of his fellow Irish, Malone has created a series of authentic
and evocative voices that are both brave and daring, yet fearful.
‘This Cruel Station’ is a compellingly acute chronicle of history's sly, inexorable requisitions; these surgically precise but essentially humane observations represent a collection of stories as strong as you are likely to read all year.
