A Border Station
Shane Connaughton. Warner Books, $8.99 (164pp) ISBN 978-0-446-39302-7
In these seven interlocking tales, an Irish boy who craves the approval of his coarse, burly police sergeant father discovers the intricacies of relationships with peers, parents and religion. ``Adroitly crafted, intensely dramatic,'' said PW . ``Written in spare yet lyrical prose, these sometimes poignant, often hilarious stories capture the mosaic of contemporary Irish life.''
