"Home? Where is home?" asks one of the characters in Dermot O'Sullivan's new collection How Things Work Out. It's one of many life-consuming questions asked in this eclectic collection. Written with energy, humour, pathos and a keen eye for the human condition, the stories capture battles large and small, running their course in offices, churches and in the heads of memorable characters: personal assistants, builders and Icarus among them. O'Sullivan's tremendous gifts as a writer grants us access to these diverse worlds and we emerge each time wiser and slightly in wonder.
