About this listen

Already established as an award-winning author for children and young adults, Deirdre Sullivan arrives as a captivating new voice in literary fiction with I Want to Know That I Will Be Okay.

In this dark, glittering collection of short stories, Deirdre Sullivan explores the trauma and power that reside in women’s bodies.

A teenage girl tries to fit in at a party held in a haunted house, with unexpected and disastrous consequences. A mother and daughter run a thriving online business selling antique dolls, while their customers get more than they bargained for. And after a stillbirth, a young woman discovers that there is something bizarre and wondrous growing inside of her. With empathy and invention, Sullivan effortlessly blends genres in stories that are by turns strange and exquisite.

Excellent short stories. Almost all of which are left with an uncertain ending hinting at dark and strange things. Enjoyed the thread through some of them lightly connecting things. Not sure I understood them, but greatly enjoyed them all

Strange, bewitching, ambiguous
