Fed up with London and my job, it’s time to escape. Why not Sri Lanka, I think. That’s idyllic and sunny and covered in palm trees, and half way across the world. A good place to chill.
A little research might also have revealed that it’s reaching the height of an internal conflict. So probably not the best time to go and work for a peace organisation. Let alone to take the kids.
Written in the moment and blind to the future, this is a voyage of discovery where nothing is what it seems, and the end of the journey – if it is an end – is far from where it began.
We Go Blindly Into The Darkness
Children play Frisbee on a beach; a man borrows his friend’s boat to go fishing; a couple move to the Highlands to retire; a chance conversation is held in Gatwick Airport. These are ordinary events experienced by ordinary people.What makes them extraordinary is where they lead.
The stories in this collection are diverse. What unites them is a search for meaning and closure. The characters exist in a natural world that is as mysterious as it is majestic, and they struggle to find their place within it.
Mulhorn’s stories touch on the transience of human existence. They acknowledge life’s hardship and disappointment, yet hint at the promise of hope beyond – a hope which is never quite satisfied.
