**Shortlisted, The Barbellion Prize** **Shortlisted, The Irish Book Awards** A pregnant woman takes the ferry to the UK. A fractious intimate relationship develops between an Irish woman, an English man, and her girlfriend. Two ungendered characters contest the same female body. A deserted wife takes a lover but remains unsatisfied. Lauren Foley's debut collection of dramatic short stories, Polluted Sex, is fearless in its depiction of women's bodies and sexuality, offering an unflinching window into Irish girl and womanhood. 'Uncompromising and raw. A new voice in Irish fiction.' - June Caldwell |
