Book excerpt: In An Unexpected Diagnosis William Long contributes his personal, tongue-in-cheek experience of his cancer treatment. After reading the story one of the medical staff said, 'All the secretaries at the City Hospital thought your story was great!' The encouraging comment led to a decision to include it with the other stories that follow. From the sad, but very funny Charlie Died Yesterday. When Rosie walked out on him and then the accident a few hours later ... There was nothing else for it, but to go downtown for a few drinks ... Then the story of The Curse ... A powerful story of a man cursed to live forever when he arrives in Belfast during 'The Troubles'... To The Old Woman's Promise ... a modern fairy tale where a man faces the prospect of a difficult choice when he seeks a cure for his affliction. As the stories unfold in this new Irish collection the reader is presented with twists and turns in every tale, each one leading to an unexpected end.
