Juggling with Turnips

By Karl MacDermott

Fiction. An overweight Mafioso wants to dance like Michael Flatley. A comedian hires an unreliable heckler to disrupt the high profile gig of a rival. A young boy develops a bizarre addiction to communion wafers. Just some of the stories from JUGGLING WITH TURNIPS. A book with very little juggling. And no turnips. JUGGLING WITH TURNIPS contains twenty-three stories of short comic fiction. It also contains one reference to Harry Dean Stanton.

"Fiercely funny stories of love, angst, dreams, delusions and failure but also a collection that is sharp, honest and true."--Ardal O'Hanlon

"These stories spring from a reckless comic imagination, there's a marvellous and irresponsible wit to these pieces...a stubborn refusal to take reality seriously. They are superbly funny and delightfully composed. He's the real deal."--Tommy Tiernan
