Description

Twelve extraordinary new stories from one of Ireland's greatest writers, Bernard MacLaverty. This collection showcases the emotional range of a master storyteller, exploring themes of family love, art, Catholicism, and ageing.

MacLaverty's writing is marked by its simplicity on the surface, but beneath lies a turbulent undertow of violence, persecution, and regret. From the sectarian Northern Ireland of 1942 to the harrowing final moments of painter Egon Schiele, each story creates a unique universe that draws the reader in.

With a mastery of language that never wastes words yet always makes them sing, MacLaverty brings sadness and joy together in his stories. This is a collection not to be missed for fans of literary fiction and those looking for a compelling read.
