Author:Aidan Higgins
THE BOOK: Flotsam and Jetsam is a selection of prose, some previously unpublished, written over the last thirty five years by one of Ireland's greatest writers. It includes work adapted from earlier novels, short stories and radio plays.
The stories have an indolent strength, a sombreness, a sense of necessity.
