An Alternative Irish Christmas

An Anthology

An Alternative Irish Christmas is a brand-new collection of original short stories and essays offering a vivid snapshot of how we celebrate Christmas in Ireland today.

Celebrate the darker season with new stories and essays from the best and most exciting Irish writers

When shadows grow longer, when expectation weighs heavy, how do people in Ireland mark Christmas? 

A woman shops for a very particular Christmas dinner: a man tries to buy a puppy for his daughter: a girl watches as her mother roasts a fowl over an open fire.

From old traditions to the creation of new ones, from moments of quiet reflection to chaos, comedy and even horror, this alternative seasonal collection reflects the stunning breadth of experiences an Irish Christmas offers.
