Greetings, Hero

Author: Aiden O'Reilly

ISBN: 9780957142756 | 322 pages

“Aiden O’Reilly’s stories of one-night stands and fraught relationships, of dreamers, drifters and migrant labourers, an academic crank at war with the legacy of the Roman Empire and a man who assembles a woman from a kit suggest complicated truths about who we are now and where we have come from. Greetings, Hero is a poignant, inventive collection by a writer distinguished by a rich and resonant voice.”

Ashley Stokes (The Syllabus of Errors, Unthank Books, 2013)

“A startling debut – wit and artistry, spliced to an imagination which has real ambition for the short story.”

Mike McCormack (Notes from a Coma)
