Trespassers and Other Stories

Contemporary short fiction set in rural Ireland, greater Boston and Cape Cod

I am now booking book events and discussion panels for (and beyond) March 2025 (Women’s History and Irish Heritage Month).

Contact me.

The 11 stories in “Trespassers” zig zag back and forth between coastal Massachusetts and rural Ireland—sometimes within the same story.

There is a theme of place and displacement, and this book brims with each character’s attempt to reconcile past and present, loss and hope and here and home.

Released in March 2025, and available for pre-order from the publisher’s website and other retail outlets.

Áine Greaney’s new collection of stories, Trespassers, is a powerful rendering of women in perpetual transition, straddling who they were and what they’ve become.
