Most of the pieces feature female protagonists who navigate their young adult years in some questionable ways. They make some ill-advised choices, which are driven by their naïve quests for \"individuality,\" while at the same time having an almost pathological need to be loved by everyone-especially men. While the stories in  'Sugar Bush' are intended for an adult audience, they employsome of the conventions of the young adult genre. They are simple, straight-ahead narratives. Part breathless teenaged confessional and part wistful and wiser looks back,  'Sugar Bush' is the first collection of short fiction by award-winning author, Jenn Farrell.  \"Populated by eccentrics,  'Sugar Bush' is a collection of coming-of-age stories. What makes them unique and engaging in what is often an overwrought genre is Farrell's humour and sense of irony.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41710640201825,"sku":"9781895636765","price":9.18,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_34919000_511cece4-0bfc-455d-b0e4-42b69ea4546c.jpg?v=1750887249","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/9781895636765-sugar-bush-other-stories","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
