Description

A Terrible Kindness by Jo Browning Wroe is a powerful and moving novel that explores the complexities of human compassion. In 1966, a devastating landslide at a coal mine has a profound impact on a small community, and 19-year-old William Lavery finds himself drawn into the midst of tragedy and heartbreak. As William navigates the aftermath of the disaster, he is forced to confront his own past and the losses he has worked hard to bury. His decision to volunteer for a new job that night sets in motion a chain of events that will challenge his sense of purpose and identity. Through William's story, Wroe raises important questions about the nature of compassion and the consequences of our actions. This is a thought-provoking and deeply human novel that will resonate with readers long after they finish reading.
