29 Ways to Drown reviewed in The Sun

Niki Aguirre's debut 29 Ways to Drown which was recently longlisted for the Frank O'Connor Short Story Prize, has just been reviewed in The Sun newspaper of May 9, 2008. The full review is reproduced below:

This debut novel is a collection of short stories which is perfect to dip in and out of at your leisure. Each tale takes us to a different country, spanning London to America. Along the way we meet a beautiful woman trapped in a marriage because her husband is so determined that money is the only thing of importance, a man who is at his happiest in his shed writing a story he knows he will never finish and a woman who is terrified of the rain after a traumatic experience during her childhood. Aguirre has an amazing imagination and each story is individual and thought-provoking. This collection of tales is perfect bedtime fodder.Natasha Harding, The Sun
