WENDY ERSKINE'One of our best short story writers.' THE TIMES'Each story is a masterclass.' JAN CARSONThe much-anticipated new collection from the BBC National Short Story Award-winning author of Multitudes and Intimacies.   I still sometimes wonder if one could draw a window in the wall, or in the air, and step through it together. To somewhere else, entirely new.   From a highly charged Christmas party in Belfast to a passionate affair in Blitz-era London, to a trip to Marrakech which could form a new family, the thirteen striking stories of Openings pulse with possibility and illuminate those fleeting but recognisable moments of heartbreak and hope that can change the course of a life.   'It takes a writer as subtle, compassionate and clear-eyed as Caldwell to track the hidden forces that work upon us, to illuminate our secret selves. This is prose that liberates.' CLAIRE KILROY'Caldwell has a glorious skill for creating narratives in which every element works in perfect tandem.'SUNDAY TIMES\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lucy Caldwell","offers":[{"title":"256 pages \/ 08\/05\/2025 \/ Modern \u0026 contemporary fiction (post c 1945)","offer_id":56966663733623,"sku":"9780571382767","price":8.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0682\/9454\/1624\/files\/9780571382767.jpg?v=1775130898","url":"https:\/\/gulpfictionbooks.com\/products\/9780571382767","provider":"Gulp Fiction","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
