Field Ramble with Wendy Erskine
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
On June 19th Wendy Erskine’s long awaited debut novel The Benefactors is published. Many of you will already know Wendy from her two acclaimed short story collections Sweet Home and Dance Move and you’ll find The Benefactors filled with the same deep curiosity for people, the same raw laughs and the same unsparing honesty.
Set, once again, in her much loved Belfast it is a broad and embracing portrait of a community that moves from the sexual assault of one of its central characters ‘Misty,’ to explore the isolating and insulating effects of class and money and the regenerative power of love.
At its heart The Benefactors is a novel that asks us to consider both the unknown and far reaching effects of our actions and the enduring place we hold in each other’s lives.
