Ruth Thomas returns to her first love the Short Story, with her third collection “Super Girl”, published by Faber in November 2009.

“This is a winning collection written with a warm heart and a cool eye.”

Adrian Turpin, Financial Times

“Anybody who loves short stories – and those who have yet to be convinced – will delight in Ruth Thomas’s marvellous new collection. Super Girl proves her a master of the form. Always imaginative and acutely observed, these funny, sharp and tender stories paint vivid, sometimes unsettling, pictures of contemporary life.”
