Summary
The debut audiobook from podcaster, musician and Ireland's foremost satirist Blindboy Boatclub.
Small Bones in a Fist is composed of stories drawn from Blindboy's first two published books: The Gospel According to Blindboy and Boulevard Wren and Other Stories.
Curated, narrated and scored by the author, Small Bones in a Fist is a surreal, provocative and darkly funny introduction to one of the most original voices in Irish literature.
The collection includes the story Did You Hear About Erskine Fogarty? which has been adapted for Irish television starring Misfists actor Robert Sheehan.

A contemporary Dubliners
Blindboy is our day’s answer to Joyce and this is his Dubliners. I hope he gives us a Ulysses someday.

Incredible new genre
All books should be scored like this. Blindboy creates an amazing atmosphere for each story. The writing is also uniquely creative and insanely good. I've been looking forward to this for 5 years since the 1st podcasts. Thank you.

Well
You can't like all stories in a book of short stories. All stories felt original though.

not a single bad story
an amazing book I was so lost when it ended. noone else could have narrated it and the moments left empty after each story were sorely needed to get your head straight before you were ready for more. I love this book

A dark and beautiful collection of stories.
I’d been waiting a long time to hear these stories being read in the voice of Blindboy. It did not disappoint. The dark comic fictions are spooky and ethereal as well as being poignant and powerful.
The soundtrack added by Blindboy heightened the tensions in the works and it was a wonderful way of connecting the worlds.
Spellbinding.

A real class collection of stories
It is Blindboy the lad is simply brilliant one of the finest Irish writers to date. Hard to pick a favourite story as they were all so good. Such a vivid way of descriptions and some great twists.
