Why is it that young Irish writers are everywhere, while the Welsh dragon of literary fiction is sitting quietly in a corner? Francesca Reece thinks that the Scottish and Irish simply have better PR — but she also says that the profile of Welsh writing is in ascendancy.
Francesca’s latest book, Glass Houses, is a plot-driven tale about sex, magic mushrooms, and nationalism. She talks to Patrick Galbraith about forestry, second homes, and the Gavin and Stacey effect.
