Prayer at the End

Prayer at the End

By Rob Mimpriss

Subjects: Wales, short story

Description: *Prayer at the End: Twenty-Three Stories* is the third of a series of three collections. It was preceded by *Reasoning* and *For His Warriors*. A cigarette quenched in the Menai Strait makes a man vow to live a selfish life. The memory of an unborn twin makes a man regret the selfish life he has lived. An elderly shopkeeper befriends the teenagers outside his shop, and a lonely householder sets out to confront the trespassers on his land. ‘“Hamilton Park” is a quietly written, contemplative short story, whose powerhouse is in the depth of its moral reflection.’ ~Siân Preece, Filter Judge, Rhys Davies Competition 2011. ‘Where is the Welsh short story going? Wherever Rob Mimpriss takes it.’ ~John O’Donoghue, Laureate, MIND Book of the Year.
