Life Without Children by Roddy Doyle

5.0

No one writes like Doyle. I was very pleased to be granted this book via #netgalley Having read the title story, Life Without Children, I started to burn through the rest of the stories here. Then I slowed down. This is, truly, what Doyle's writing deserves - some focus and patience. Even while his stories (and novels) drive you headfirst towards the end, they grow and add deeper meaning when taken one at a time, and read slowly.

Honestly, if you like Doyle, get this. If you like good writing, get this. If you want to try and figure out what has happened to us all over the past year and a half, get this. It's a remarkable book by one of our greatest writers.
