Read The Way Out Storyline:

A girl on a paper round gets more than she bargained for. A couple feels the strain when the money runs out. Life plays out in the bingo hall and at the bus stop. Welcome to a world of chip shops, offices, call centres and run-down homes. In this remarkable debut collection of stories from an acclaimed new voice, the lives of women at the margins are explored; people living on the edge of relationships, the economy and society. Jarrett's unforgettable characters dream of escape from jobs, relationships and lives but, most of all, from the consequences of failure and success. The Way Out is heart-breaking, tender, devastatingly honest and brimming with black comedy.
