Sheep, Shite and Desolation was part of Block Two, which also included 'Where the Heart is' by Michael Harding, 'Babies and Bathwater' by Brendan Gleeson, and 'Between Venus and Mars' by Antoine ó Flatharta (all listed separately).
An exploration of the Irish Countrywoman's Association, based upon the author's experiences living in a remote area of Co. Cork. Having found fault with the ICA in the past, particularly the conservative attitude to feminist sexual politics within the organisation, as a member McCafferty experienced "womanly consolation" and revised her views.
