Inhaltsangabe

Horses is the story of a storm, and of grief and arson and revenge. A priest, a doctor and a policeman, on a single wild night south of Dublin, struggle with the unpredictability of a teenage girl, and a man with no shoes.

'The Irishman's stories are artful indeed - with a rolling, gathering cadence that is mesmerising. The circumstances he examines are wonderfully odd. Unusually for such a stylish, descriptive writer, Ridgway is also a master of action.' Economist
