In "Yeh Can't Stone Women Anymore", Angelina McCarthy battles against all odds to rise above the squalor and brutality of her surroundings. Set in the tumultuous era of 1970s Ireland, this poignant and at times hilarious novel follows the life of Angie, born into a family of drunks, ne'er-do-wells, and headers, as she navigates the bleak terrain of Catholic influence, savage violence, and social upheaval. Along the way, she encounters an array of colourful characters, from a disenfranchised best pal and a parrot named MacBride to school bullies and perverted TDs. But as she struggles to find her place in an increasingly apathetic world, Angie is forced to confront the harsh reality that moral decency may be a distant fantasy. A gritty and strangely heartfelt odyssey of life in old Dublin, "Yeh Can't Stone Women Anymore", catapults readers across the city, from the streets to the terraces, the pubs to the chippers, and the sandflats of Sandymount Strand to the greens of The Pheonix Park and the claustrophobic Mount Pleasant. A Dubliner will know precisely where they are.
