Watermark — Sean O'Reilly

`Watermark' tells the story of Veronica a young woman living on the edge of desire and reason in an unnamed Irish city. As with his three earlier books, Sean O'Reilly proves himself here to be a genuine prose stylist, possessed of a uniquely dark and powerful vision of our contemporary culture. A virtuosic performance combining formal experimentation with brave and beautiful storytelling, `Watermark' seals O'Reilly's reputation as one of Europe's most exciting young writers.
