Calm With Horses

NOW A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE Arm, an ex-boxer with a haunted past and a fractured present, finds himself the tool of the notorious Devers family. But when an opportunity to break free and offer his family a new life arises, his actions can’t be without consequence. First published in the award-winning collection, Young Skins, the novella ‘Calm With Horses’ was adapted for film in 2020. It has been described by Mark Kermode as ‘an immersive tale of tortured masculinity and divided loyalties that pulls the viewer right into the raging bull mindset of its haunted protagonist.’
