Crab Skerry takes his first run with the other boys through the gorse-maze in pursuit of kisses from the local girls.
But secretly he longs for Madden, the stable girl.
Zoe Gilbert’s debut novel 'Folk' conjures up a series of dark and bewitching tales from a remote mythical island – Neverness - a place ripe with shadowy secrets and magic, and where its villagers’ lives are entwined with nature: its enchantments, seductions and dangers.
Read by Samantha Spiro.
Zoe Gilbert is the winner of the Costa Short Story Award in 2014. Folk has been long-listed for the 2019 International Dylan Thomas Prize.
