Description

In prose thats as sharp as broken glass and shot through with poetry, Teresa McWhirter unlocks the extraordinary subculture of urban adults in their twenties and early thirties. Most startling of all are the portraits of young womentough, independent party girls who are strong enough to say no to love and smart enough to know why. McWhirter unearths a community of adult-kids seldom chronicled Realistic dialogueheavily peppered with slang, swearing and esoteric pop-culture referencescontributes to the novels overall believability. The humour and wordplay alone mark McWhirter as a writer to watch. Quill and Quire Some Girls Do is a sharp, poetic glimpse into the yearning but hopelessly unfocused lives of a group of marginal urbanites surprisingly, McWhirter makes them touching rather than alienating.
