Ghosts of the Old Year is an atmospheric collection of contemporary Welsh writing. Stories of passion, death and desire love between parents and children, men and women, believers and gods, people and places. This is an anthology of winning stories from the 2001 Rhys Davies Short Story competition. Because the competition is judged anonymously, this volume collects new stories from well-respected Welsh authors Stevie Davies and Jo Mazelis alongside brilliant new talent such as Ruth Joseph and Tristan Hughes.
