Reality, Reality Reviews

`Jackie Kay's third collection of short stories ranks among the best' Guardian
`Hilarious . . . heartbreaking' Observer
`Sheer joy . . . The pleasure that Kay takes in observation, in dipping her imagination into the secrets of the secretive and the songs of the unsung, is infectious' Scotland on Sunday
`They glow with a quiet radiance, touched as they are by the warmth of their creator's heart' Spectator
`Invigorating and witty . . . An observer whose eye for human frailty and courage is that of a portraitist who wants to show rather than tell' Sunday Herald
