A single mother resorts to extreme measures to protect her young son.

A Nigerian student undertakes a United Nations internship in the hope of a better future. A recently divorced man starts a running group with members of an online forum for recovering addicts.

A collection of prodigious depth and variety, After the Carnage marks the remarkable evolution of one of our finest young writers.

Tara June Winch’s After the Carnage shatters you with the kind of urgency that only comes from a great short story writer. Its characters speak with real voices and their stories are abridged terrors of racism, entrenched poverty and family grief. There’s so much to find in these pages, so much to be angry for, so much to reflect on. I loved it.
