March 24th, 2011
Two of Gerry’s poems, ‘The Big Issue’ and ‘Stone Walls’, March 14, 2011 Searching for ‘the good things in life’, Confession time. It’s not often you hear God being invoked in a mainstream Northern Irish novel – at least as a positive force. And to be honest, for the cynical among us, it can be a little unsettling. But this reader’s fears that religion – and, more terrifyingly again, religious preaching – might become a dominant theme in Gerry McCullough’s debut novel Belfast Girls prove completely unfounded. "an engaging and occasionally acerbic rendering of post-ceasefire Belfast"

fascinating ... original ... a refreshing examination of modern-day Belfast
McCullough's writing is far from naive ... she exposes the grey areas
multilayered ... expertly travels from one genre to the next
showcases that she can carry the weight of a full length novel with ease
an impressive debut ... innate literary talent ... a name to watch in future
