Field Ramble with Wendy Erskine
This month’s episode of Field Ramble is a conversation I’ve been looking forward to for so long. Wendy Erskine needs little introduction. Author of two incredible collections Sweet Home and Dance Move, she is an unbelievable story teller and my go to when I’m asked for a book recommend. Wendy writes through the voices that surround her in her East Belfast home. In them we soon slip beneath the surface of day to day lives to meet abandoned children, paramilitary death squads, extortion, lost love, false accusations, obsession and murder. If you’ve yet to read either of her books get them on top of the pile. Both are collections to be savoured, each filled with characters that live on long after you’ve put the book down, characters you’ll care deeply for within just a few pages.
Huge thanks go to Huw Marc Bennett for the use of his music (Y Gwydd.) Find all of Huw’s music on band camp - his latest album Days Like Now is an absolute killer.
