“Percipient and exquisitely rendered” – Constellations by Sinead Gleason

"Constellations is a collection of fourteen essays written by an eloquent storyteller. Each celebrates the imperfect body - its workings and failings. There are musings on wider attitudes to ownership and behaviour. The stories told are incisive and highly personal. They cover a variety of the author’s lived experiences including: bone disease, cancer treatment, pregnancy, motherhood, and death. As a woman growing up in Ireland she has shouldered a burden of expectation against which she quietly rebels..." - Jackie Law reviews Constellations by Sinead Gleason
