Any Kind of Broken Man goes to Nation Cymru
When the Cockatrice was a young hatchling in the early 1990s, publishing in New Welsh Review and The Swansea Review, and still with bits of egg-shell in its down, Roger Granelli was already establishing himself as one of the leading writers of fiction in Wales. Ten novels later, encompassing a range of genres and approaches, the Cockatrice is proud to have given his collected stories to the world. Here Jane Fraser, reviewing the book for Nation Cymru, finds work which depicts the bitterness of broken and impoverished working class men, yet portrays them with wisdom and compassion. Any Kind of Broken Man is available from Cockatrice Books below.
