About the Author
Shane Dunphy worked in child protection in southeast Ireland for fifteen years. Wednesday's Child is a distillation of cases he encountered in that time to make a single, year-long narrative. Shane now tutors on childcare courses in Waterford City. He is a native of Wexford, where he still lives with his wife and two children.
Review
'Unputdownable' * Sunday World * 'This harrowing book should be read by anyone who cares how the State copes with troubled children' -- Irish Examiner Wednesday's Child is a serious but accessible book, and it casts an illuminating light on the lives of people who are so often unacknowledged. * The Book Bag * 'Shocking, heart-breaking and inspiring' * Clare Champion * Wednesday's Child is that rare beast: a serious work of non-fiction that reads like a thriller. A book, about childhood and what we do to our children, that never exploits but seeks only to understand. By turns funny, angry, touching and, ultimately, almost unbearbly moving, it is a stunning achievement. -- John Connolly
