This third highly inventive collection by Tara Bergin is a diary-reflection on the savagery of modern life told in a series of fragmented entries. Tara Bergin's third collection, Savage Tales continues to explore original territory, bringing the riddle, song and dialogue into a series of formally inventive and blackly comic sequences.
