| Notes: | ''An impressive selection picked by Costa First Novel winner Catherine O'Flynn. Iain Grant's ''Six of the Best'' quirkily shifts the dynamics of a pupil encountering his old teacher, Megan Dunn's ''The Mermaid and the Music Box'' ends in a wonderful weird tableau of mermaids combing their hair on the top of the Empire State Building and Rodge Glass's ''I know my team...'' unsentimentally captures the uneasiness between a daughter and the father she reluctantly visits in a nursing home. Almost every one of the 22 stories makes you want to hear more from their creators'' Guardian |
