Wales Half Welsh

After years of near invisibility in contemporary fiction, overshadowed by the acclaimed offerings from Scotland and Ireland, Wales can now draw on a brilliant and diverse group of writers, from Trezza Azzopardi to James Hawes, and Niall Griffiths to Anna Davis. "Wales Half Welsh" is a vibrant and original collection, whose subjects range from childhood trauma to hipster thrills, but all of them share a pervasive sense of a dark, edgy world. So here they are: eleven new writers from Wales--a place that's catching up with its own distinctive history.
