A National Book Foundation 5 Under 35 Honoree Winner of the Frank O'Connor International Short Story Award, the Guardian First Book Award, and the Rooney Prize for Irish Literature Enter the small, rural town of Glanbeigh, a place whose fate took a downturn with the Celtic Tiger, a desolate spot where buffoonery and tension simmer and erupt, and booze-sodden boredom fills the corners of every pub and nightclub. Here, and in the towns beyond, the young live hard and wear the scars. Amongst them, there's jilted Jimmy, whose best friend Tug is the terror of the town and Jimmy's sole company in his search for the missing Clancy kid; Bat, a lovesick soul with a face like "a bowl of mashed up spuds" even before Nubbin Tansey's boot kicked it in; and Arm, a young and desperate criminal whose destiny is shaped when he and his partner, Dympna, fail to carry out a job. In each story, a local voice delineates the grittiness of post boom Irish society. These are unforgettable characters rendered through silence, humor, and violence. Told in Barrett's vibrant, distinctive prose, Young Skins is an accomplished and irreverent debut from a singular new voice in contemporary fiction.Binding Type: Paperback

Brother sublimation ink
Color: 4-Color
I have the Brother sublimation printer and need these specific ink cartridges from Brother...got just what I wanted. Fast shipping as well....only thing is that I wish it was all shipped in a box and not an unpadded bag....it was really beat up. I think the cartridges ae ok but the little display individual boxes they are in are damaged and the shipping bag was wrecked. UPS is really hard on their handling!

Love Brothers Sublimation Ink.

We use it exclusively in my shop in my Brother Sublimation printer. As you can see from the picture. The print quality can’t be beat, colors quality is outstanding details pop. It’s easy to install in the printer. A great value for the money and paired with the Brother printer the pair’s performance is excellent!
