I do. I am one." 📝 So begins Colin O’Sullivan’s new novel, “My Perfect Cousin”. I’ve just finished reading the final draft and here’s a short summary for Colin’s fans: 🔽 Rural Ireland in the late 1980s and, stuck in a rut in a small unnamed village, are fifteen-year-old cousins Laura and Kevin. Laura and Kevin have something else in common: the mysterious absence of both fathers. The close cousins and companions (how close is too close?) ache to abscond to somewhere bigger, better, more exciting. But things are holding them back. Laura’s mother has just died after a long illness and then there is Laura’s own serious affliction, epilepsy, which comes and goes when she least expects it. Only cousin Kevin seems to be able to know how to handle this tricky situation, or handle her: with gentleness and with maybe just a little too much in the way of love and affection. And then there is the strange matter of the nearby pond... This small body of water keeps drawing them near; Laura, a reader of books about myths and monsters, is convinced that something lurks down there... Are they prepared for whatever secrets might come bubbling to the surface, monsters, real or imagined, that could come rising from the depths? 🔼 So thrilled with this new novel from The Poet of Darkness! “Coming-of-rage” more than “coming-of-age”! ♥ #hiddenmonsters #colinosullivan #myperfectcousin #newnovel #finalmanuscript #lovingit #comingofagenovel #comingofrage #teenagecharacter #monsterinthelake #teenagersfromhell #betimesbooksauthors #bookstagram #advancednotice #irishwriter #literaryfictionIt is always a joy to find a translation of a book I've published in a bookshop 😊 Colin O'Sullivan, in a good company, at the Tropiques bookshop in Paris. ✒ Je ne suis pas un éditeur blasé: toujours une joie de trouver une traduction d'un livre que j'ai publié dans une librairie, par hasard...
