Sheepshagger

Location(s): Wales
Genre(s): Fiction
Era(s): Modern
Written in rough, tough and fiercely native prose, Sheepshagger is a coming-of-age ensemble novel about a bunch of promiscuous, disenchanted, druggy Welsh youngsters, growing up in a world from which they feel disconnected, surrounded by a beautiful countryside they struggle to understand. In the middle and somehow pivotal to this motley Celtic crew is Ianto: a genetically unfortunate ne’er-do-well who yet possesses the spiritual centredness the others lack.
