Too busy to think?

What people have said:

"Salway is fearless in her choice of subjects: she is good on contemporary themes of love, betrayal and twenty-first century isolation, as well as sensuality and violence...This is energetic writing, ripe with menance and wit." Nuala Ni Chonchuir, The Stinging Fly

"Original and charming" Marie Claire magazine

"Relationships and characters evolve nicely in this lighthearted novel about family and lovers and the not-so-lighthearted secrets that separate them" Publishers Weekly

"These short stories explore the often wavering borderland between love and boredom, sensuality and repression, fidelity and betrayal. They are written with a spare and subtle elegance." D M Thomas, author of The White Hotel
